Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 19117 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 211, Geographic information/Geomatics.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 19117:2005), which has been technically
revised.

Introduction
This International Standard specifies a conceptual schema for portrayal data, in particular symbols and
portrayal functions. Portrayal functions associate features with symbols for the portrayal of the features on
maps and other display media. This schema includes classes, attributes, associations and operations that
provide a common conceptual framework that specifies the structure of and interrelationships between
features, portrayal functions, and symbols. It separates the content of the data from the portrayal of that data,
to allow the data to be portrayed in a manner independent of the dataset. This framework is derived from
concepts found in existing portrayal implementations, and specifies a conceptual standard for use in future
implementations (for example OGC Symbology Encoding and Styled Layer Descriptor Profile of WMS).
This International Standard provides an abstract model for developers of portrayal systems so that they can
implement a system with the flexibility to portray geographic data to a user community in a manner that makes
sense to that community.
The principal changes in this revision are to expand the concept of portrayal rules to more generic portrayal
functions, include definitions for symbols (including parameterized symbols), include both portrayal functions
and symbols in portrayal catalogues, and define a core portrayal schema, and extensions for specialized
cases.
This revision for the most part expands on the concepts in ISO 19117:2005, but concepts for portrayal
specifications (as a symbol instead of an operation), portrayal catalogue (also includes symbols), and
rules-based portrayal (multiple rules allowed) have been changed.
