AS/NZS ISO 19141:2011

This International Standard defines a method to describe the geometry of a feature that moves as a rigid body.Such movement has the following characteristics.a) The feature moves within any domain composed of spatial objects as specified in ISO 19107.b) The feature may move along a planned route, but it may deviate from the planned route.c) Motion may be influenced by physical forces, such as orbital, gravitational, or inertial forces.d) Motion of a feature may influence or be influenced by other features, for example:1) The moving feature might follow a predefined route (e.g. road), perhaps part of a network, and might change routes at known points (e.g. bus stops, waypoints).2) Two or more moving features may be "pulled" together or pushed apart (e.g. an airplane will be refuelled during flight, a predator detects and tracks a prey, refugee groups join forces).3) Two or more moving features may be constrained
