4.1.7.1.2 Annotation Geometry

Annotations may provide an 'Annotation' representation for including points, curves, surfaces, fill areas, and text.

Styled items may provide structure and styles that apply to the representation, a geometric set may provide styles that apply to all items within, and/or items may provide their own styles which override styles defined at the geometric set. Styles and label can also be assigned by presentation layers.

The representation identifier of the annotation representation is:

The following diagram shows the generic classes and relationships used when applying this concept. In addition, concepts may have particular importance to common or standardised industry practices and scenarios. For these specific usage scenarios, the table below shows a recommended list of general usage patterns that users may adopt.
