OGP P1/90 Post Plot Positioning Data Feature Representation

In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Type Attributes), this format also adds format-specific attributes (Format Attributes).

Each feature created in FME corresponds to either one data record or the entirety of header records.

There are numerous P190 data record types, each one with different data fields. Each record type corresponds to a feature type in FME. The corresponding feature type will store the data fields as attributes. In some cases, additional location-specific information will be stored as traits of the geometry for the feature type.

Currently data record types “Receiver Group Records (3-D Offshore Surveys)” and “Relation Records (3-D Offshore Surveys) are not supported. If you would like a data record type added, please visit our Knowledge Center and suggest an idea.

The tables below list the FME feature types for “Type 1: Grid or Geographical Coordinates” and “Type 2 data record types, and the attributes each produces.

Each P1/90 file contains several header records, which are accumulated into one FME feature type. Each different header is parsed corresponding to the header record type, and the fields are stored as list attributes on the header feature type. For header feature types, p190_type will always be p190_none.

The default value for non-coordinate system related records (datum, projection, and units) is “N/A”.

The default for datum is WGS-84.

The default for projection is UTM.

The default for units is metric and degrees.

Notes:

The reader header feature will produce the attributes header_description for the p190_onboard_system and for the p190_offset records. This is to allow the header descriptions for those fields to be written out if a file is round-tripped through FME.

While these attributes do not show up on the schema and are not created automatically for other fields, they can be added manually in the form of

p190_issue_date{0}.header_description

where p190_issue_date is the desired header record.

The writer will look for these attributes and write them out if they exist; otherwise, it will write out default values.

There is also a header_last_digits attribute for the p190_offset and the p190_sgsi_comment records: this determines the last two digits of the H09XX value and the last digit of the H800X value. The header_last_digits attribute will only work for these two record types.
