Annotations
The value of this property is a text description of the object. gml:description
uses gml:StringOrRefType as its content model, so it may contain a simple text string
content, or carry a reference to an external description. The use of gml:description to
reference an external description has been deprecated and replaced by the
gml:descriptionReference property.

gml:NilReasonType
optional
xlink:actuate
restriction of string
optional
The 'actuate' attribute is used to communicate the desired timing
of traversal from the starting resource to the ending resource;
it's value should be treated as follows:
onLoad - traverse to the ending resource immediately on loading
the starting resource
onRequest - traverse from the starting resource to the ending
resource only on a post-loading event triggered for
this purpose
other - behavior is unconstrained; examine other markup in link
for hints
none - behavior is unconstrained

xlink:role

optional
xlink:show
restriction of string
optional
The 'show' attribute is used to communicate the desired presentation
of the ending resource on traversal from the starting resource; it's
value should be treated as follows:
new - load ending resource in a new window, frame, pane, or other
presentation context
replace - load the resource in the same window, frame, pane, or
other presentation context
embed - load ending resource in place of the presentation of the
starting resource
other - behavior is unconstrained; examine other markup in the
link for hints
none - behavior is unconstrained
