Dear Semantics , dear tcg members
The Semantics has proposed a Maintenance procedure in oder to update the
UCD list ( and more generaly ivoa vocabularies)
as stated in the WD
http://www.ivoa.net/documents/UCDlistMaintenance/20171018/
We are experiencing the first iteration of this procedure.
Here is the list of new terms asked during the last revision iteration
for UCD terms asked for the period "May 2017 - Feb2018"
23 terms have been proposed, discussed in the UCD expert group and
inserted in the UCD assigning tool.
Q | phys.electCharge | Electric charge
Q | phys.current | Electric current
Q | phys.current.density | Electric current density
Q | pos.incidenceAng | Incidence angle of optical ray on an interface
Q | pos.emergenceAng | Emergence angle of optical ray on an interface
Q | pos.azimuth | azimuthal angle in a generic reference plane
Q | phys.reflectance | Radiance factor (received radiance divided by
input radiance)
Q | phys.reflectance.bidirectional | Bidirectional reflectance
Q | phys.reflectance.bidirectional.df | Bidirectional reflectance
distribution function
Q | phys.reflectance.factor | Reflectance normalized per direction
cosine of incidence angle
S |pos.cylindrical |Related to cylindrical coordinates
Q | pos.cylindrical.r | Radial distance from z-axis (cylindrical
coordinates)
Q | pos.cylindrical.azi | Azimuthal angle around z-axis (cylindrical
coordinates)
Q | pos.cylindrical.z | Height or altitude from reference plane
(cylindrical coordinates)
S | pos.spherical | Related to cylindrical coordinates
Q | pos.spherical.r | Radial distance or radius (spherical coordinates)
Q | pos.spherical.azi | Azimuthal angle (spherical coordinates)
Q | pos.spherical.colat |Polar or Colatitude angle (spherical
coordinates)
Q | pos.resolution | Spatial linear resolution (not angular)
S | pos.bodycentric | Body-centric related coordinate
S | pos.bodygraphic | Body-graphic related coordinate
Q | meta.checksum | Numerical signature of digital data
Q | phys.polarization.coherency | Matrix of the correlation between
components of an electromagnetic wave
The full detailed discussion is available at the dedicated web page
http://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/UCDList1dot42017June2018FebRFM
We would like to have these terms agreed by the TCG in order to validate
UCD List version 1.4
Please revise this list and express your comments.
Many thanks ,
Mireille (Semantics WG chair)
