Overview

• CGM: Computer Graphics Metafile • an ISO (International Organization for Standardization) standard for vector

and composite vector/raster picture definition since 1987

2D Technical Illustrations/Graphicsthe ATA and S1000D Specification


Introduction

• The context: production of 2D technical illustrations within the standards of the Aerospace & Defense sectors

• S1000D and ATA iSpec 2200

• Projects expect illustrations that are fit-for-purpose and specifications compliant

• File validation against CGM profiles

• Visual inspection against style and format rules

• We insist on valid XML for exchange, we must expect the same for graphical content


Focus on CGM

• CGM: a standard for the storage and exchange of 2D vector graphics, raster graphics and text defined by ISO/IEC 8632

• The CGM format is a very complex way to describe a 2D vector drawing

• The core ISO CGM specification includes everything you should ever need to define a drawing

• The core ISO CGM specification also includes many features and concepts that you will rarely need…

• To make sense of the complexity, CGM Profiles limit or extend the core ISO CGM specification


What is a CGM profile?

• CGM Profiles may be layered to further refine the CGM definition…


ISO/IEC 8632-1 (1999-12-15) CGM

Model Profile Edition 2

WebCGM Profile Edition 2.1

S1000D Profile

What is a CGM profile?

• A CGM profile contains up to 170 requirement clauses for CGM content

• A further 21 requirements for CGM generators and viewers

• ‘Simple’ example:


Illustration – Mode of Presentation

• Each specification demands profile compliance, but what about the style and format of the illustration?

• S1000D devotes 72 pages to the visual style while ATA iSpec 2200 manages 165 pages…


Illustration Business Rules

• These presentation requirements are NOT handled by CGM profile compliance!

• The style and format are classed as illustration business rules

• Definitions for:


Allowed Image areas

ICN/GNBR format

Line and edge weights

Font sizes

Hotspot definitions

Color definitions

Plus others…
