Element Description

The upper limit of the distance (in meters) from the given DecimalLatitude and DecimalLongitude describing a circle within which the whole of the described locality lies. Leave the value empty if the uncertainty is unknown, cannot be estimated, or is not applicable (because there are no coordinates). Describes the point-radius representation of the location, along with DecimalLatitude, DecimalLongitude, and GeodeticDatum. Zero is not a valid value for this element.

• 02 Aug 2005 - wording changes in descriptions for DecimalLatitude, DecimalLongitude, and CoordinateUncertaintyInMeters (JohnWieczorek, per Ginzbarg).

• 22 May 2008 - wording changes in description, no functional change (JohnWieczorek, per O Tuama).
