252 252  The Metadata Structure Definition (MSD) has been simplified to remove target information, and the support of multiple report structures. The MSD now only contains Metadata Attributes which are used to define the structure of a report.

368 368  A new GeospatialInformation string type has been added which can be used as the 214 representation for any dimension, attribute or measure component. The value which is a 215 string expression conforming to the syntax defined in Section 6 of the technical 216 specifications precisely defines a ‘Geo Feature Set’ – a collection of geographical 217 features like points, lines or polygons. Its use is recommended in conjunction with the “GEO_FEATURE_SET” concept role.
