Feature::
An abstraction of real world phenomena. (SOURCE: ISO 19101)
For the purposes of this document, it refers to an individual realization thereof.
_In the GES, a feature is realized through a row of a user-defined features table._
Features can be classified as _geographic_ and _non-geographic_.
_In the GES, the Features Requirements Class is for geographic features._
_For non-geographic features, see <<Attributes>> below._

Feature Store::
A container for features.
_In the GES, a feature store is realized through a user-defined features table._
_In the GES, a feature store is realized through a user-defined features table (for geographic features) or attributes table (for non-geographic features; see below)._

Feature Type::
A class of features having common characteristics. (SOURCE: Adapted from ISO 19101)
_In the GES, a feature type is realized through the schema of a user-defined features table._

Geographic Feature::
A representation of real world phenomenon associatied with a location relative to the Earth. (SOURCE: ISO 19125-2:2004)
_In the GES, a geographic feature is realized through a row of a user-defined features table._

Geometry::
spatial object representing a geometric set (SOURCE: ISO 19107)
A spatial object representing a geometric set. (SOURCE: ISO 19107)
_In the GES, a geometry is realized through a Well Known Binary value for a geometry attribute for a feature in a user-defined features table._

Geometry Attribute::
a specialization of attribute for geometry values.
_In the GES, a geometry attribute is realized through a column of a user-defined features table._
A specialization of attribute for geometry values.
_In the GES, a geometry attribute is realized through a column of a user-defined features table._

Geometry Attribute Type::
a specialization of attribute types for a geometry data type.
_In the GES, a geometry attribute type is realized through a row of `gpkg_geometry_columns`._
A specialization of attribute types for a geometry data type.
_In the GES, a geometry attribute type is realized through a row of `gpkg_geometry_columns`._

=== Attributes

GeoPackages that conform to the Attributes Requirements Class contain the content represented in <<Attributes_Classes>>.

Attributes Set::
Attributes Store::
a container for attributes sets.
_In the GES, an attributes store is realized through a user-defined attributes table._

Non-Geographic Feature Set::
a user-defined type with one or attributes, none of which is a geometry.
_In the GES, an attributes set is realized through a row of a user-defined attributes table._
_In the GES, a non-geographic feature set is realized through a row of a user-defined attributes table._

[NOTE]
====
OGC 12-128 defined this concept as "attributes".
However, this conflicts with the standard definition of an attribute as a member of a class.

Attributes Set Type::
the characteristics (attribute types) of an attributes set.
_In the GES, an attributes set type is realized through the schema of a user-defined attributes table._

Attributes Store::
a container for attributes sets.
_In the GES, an attributes store is realized through a user-defined attributes table._
Non-Geograpic Feature Set Type::
A class of features having common characteristics. (SOURCE: Adapted from ISO 19101)
