The point shape type is the simplest form of geodetic LI, which is
natively supported by GML. The gml:Point element is used when there
is no known uncertainty. A point also forms part of a number of
other geometries. A point may be specified using either WGS 84
(latitude, longitude) or WGS 84 (latitude, longitude, altitude). The

5.2.3. Arc Band Respresentation and Usage The gml:pos element indicates the position of the center, or origin,
of the ellipse. The gs:semiMajorAxis and gs:semiMinorAxis elements
are the length of the semi-major and semi-minor axes respectively.
The gs:orientation element is the angle by which the semi-major axis
is rotated from the first axis of the CRS towards the second axis.
For WGS 84, the orientation indicates rotation from Northing to
Easting, which, if specified in degrees, is roughly equivalent to a
compass bearing (if magnetic north were the same as the WGS north
pole). Note: An ellipse with equal major and minor axis lengths is a
circle.

where timing advance or code offsets sequences are used to compensate where timing advance or code offsets sequences are used to compensate

The sphere is a volume that provides the same information as a circle
in three dimensions. The sphere has to be specified using a three

is identical to the circle example, except for the addition of an
altitude in the provided coordinates.
