For the FLnnn, nnnnM, nnnnFT case we will document (probably in the TAC to XML Guidance document) that the lowerLimit and upperLimit should be the same in these cases.
For the ABV FLnnn case we agree. In Annex 3 there are SIGMET examples in the template "TOP BLW FL450" and "ABV FL250" which IWXXM should be able to represent. We will remove both of these rules in IWXXM 2.1.1, and look at this again in IWXXM 3 to see if there are any rules that should be enforced that are not present.
For the SFC/FL550 case, the IWXXM needs to represent all three cases:
-the lower limit is unspecified -the lower limit is "SFC" (ground level) -the lower limit is specified ("100FL", for example)
The only case that seems unclear is when the lower limit is unspecified (by the forecaster, for example). In this case the following can be used:
The final case should be documented in the TAC to XML Guidance as well
Schematron rules SIGMET.SEC3, SIGMET.SEC4, AIRMET.AEC9 and AIRMET.AEC10 were removed and committed under version 2.1.1RC1.
Re-opening issue since there are two TAC-to-XML Guidance modifications that still need to be made in addition to the AIR/SIGMET Schematron changes
updates to https://github.com/wmo-im/iwxxm/blob/master/2.1.1RC1/TAC-to-XML-Guidance.txt are still required
FLnnn, nnnnM, nnnnFT This is typical for SIGMETs based on pilot reports, e.g. turbulence at the level in which the airplane was. We suggest to set aixm:lowerLimit and aixm:upperLimit to the same value in effect creating an airspace volume which has zero thickness. If you agree with this suggestion please add comment into TAC-to-XMLGuidance. txt and/or in schema documentation and create an examples TAC/XML SIGMET to demonstrate it.
ABV FLnnn The issue is that geometryUpperLimitOperator can have only value "ABOVE" but "BELOW" is not allowed by Schematron
SFC/FL550 We believe the example sigmet-VA-EGGX.xml is incorrect and should be changed like this:
This stems from cbs-tt-avxml:
