| Type of standard | ISO International Standard Meta level |
| Application | ISO 19107 provides conceptual schemas for describing and manipulating spatial characteristics of geographic features. The associated set of operators is also described. |
| Conformance classes | Geometric primitives Geometric complexes Topological complexes Topological complexes with geometric realisations Boolean operators |
| Implementation benefits | ISO 19107 describes the geometry and topology of vector features, as well as three-dimensional features. The geometry described in ISO 19107 provides a means of quantitative description of features, for example, using coordinates or mathematical functions. The taxonomy of operators includes a formal definition and thus allows for harmonious implementations. |
| Products | The concepts from ISO 19107 are implemented in applications such as Esri ArcGIS and QGIS. ISO 19107 is also the basis for ISO 19136:2007 Geographic information - Geography Markup Language (GML). |
