MIL-STD-600006
VECTOR PRODUCT FORMAT
Year: 1992
Abstract: The vector product format (VPF) is a standard format, structure, and organization for large geographic databases that are based on a georelational data model and are intended for direct use. VPF is designed to be compatible with a wide variety of applications and products. VPF allows application software to read data directly from computer-readable media without prior conversion to an intermediate form. VPF uses tables and indexes that permit direct access by spatial location and thematic content and is designed to be used with any digital geographic data in vector format that can be represented using nodes, edges, and faces. VPF defines the format of data objects, and the georelational data model provides a data organization within which software can manipulate the VPF data objects. A product specification corresponding to a specific database product determines the precise contents of feature tables and their relationships in the database. In this context, each separate product or application is defined by a product specification and implemented by using VPF structures.
The information contained in this standard shall be used by the Military Departments, Office of the Secretary of Defense, Organizations of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Defense Agencies of the Department of Defense (collectively known as DoD Components) in preparing and accessing digital geographic data required or specified to be in vector product format.
This standard is UNCLASSIFIED. The procedures and processes presented in this standard may be used for classified processing with the addition of appropriate security provisions. Intended Use: This standard is designed to define methods and provide guidance for creating and using digital geographic databases in vector product format.
