						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition -- 
A local identifier, assigned by the data provider. The local identifier is unique within the namespace, that is no other spatial object carries the same unique identifier.

-- Description -- 
NOTE It is the responsibility of the data provider to guarantee uniqueness of the local identifier within the namespace. [Source: Feature Catalogue 'INSPIRE application schemas' http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/data-model/approved/r4618/fc/#_C33423]

-- Guidance --
It is recommended that Data Providers reporting under WFD use the value of the euProtectedAreaCode as the object's localId.

-- Additional information --  
Recommendation 3: The localId attribute of the external object identifier of a spatial object shall be the same as the ID used for reporting obligations under the Water Framework Directive [2000/60/EC]. [Source: http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/documents/Data_Specifications/INSPIRE_DataSpecification_AM_v3.0.pdf , page 150] </xs:documentation>

					<xs:element name="inspireIdNamespace" type="wfd:String254Type" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition --
Namespace uniquely identifying the data source of the spatial object.

-- Description --
NOTE The namespace value will be owned by the data provider of the spatial object and will be registered in the INSPIRE External Object Identifier Namespaces Register. [Source: Feature Catalogue 'INSPIRE application schemas' http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/data-model/approved/r4618/fc/#_C33423]

-- Guidance --
Optional. Data Providers must report the namespace of the data source of the spatial object, if an INSPIRE data set was used for reporting.</xs:documentation>
						</xs:annotation>
					</xs:element>
					<xs:element name="inspireIdVersionId" type="wfd:String25Type" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition --
The identifier of the particular version of the spatial object, with a maximum length of 25 characters. If the specification of a spatial object type with an external object identifier includes life-cycle information, the version identifier is used to distinguish between the different versions of a spatial object. Within the set of all versions of a spatial object, the version identifier is unique. 

-- Description --
NOTE The maximum length has been selected to allow for time stamps based on ISO 8601, for example, "2007-02-12T12:12:12+05:30" as the version identifier.
NOTE 2 The property is void, if the spatial data set does not distinguish between different versions of the spatial object. It is missing, if the spatial object type does not support any life-cycle information. [Source: Feature Catalogue 'INSPIRE application schemas' http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/data-model/approved/r4618/fc/#_C33423] 

-- Guidance --
Optional. Data Providers must report the version of spatial object, if an INSPIRE data set was used for reporting and life-cycle info is supported.</xs:documentation>

					<xs:element name="thematicIdIdentifier" type="wfd:FeatureUniqueEUCodeType">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>--Definition--
Unique identifier used to identify the spatial object within the specified identification scheme. [Source: Feature Catalogue 'INSPIRE application schemas' http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/data-model/approved/r4618/fc/#_C33431]

-- Guidance --
Data Providers reporting under WFD must use the euProtectedAreaCode as the thematicIdIdentifier. Data Providers are required to report this element. Note that the value of thematicIdIdentifier attribute will be the same as the value of the localId attribute, if the Data Provider followed the INSPIRE recommendation (i.e. if the euProtectedAreaCode was used as the localId value).</xs:documentation>
						</xs:annotation>
					</xs:element>
					<xs:element name="thematicIdIdentifierScheme" type="wfdgml:IdentifierScheme">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>--Definition--
Identifier defining the scheme used to assign the identifier. 

--Description--
NOTE 1: Reporting requirements for different environmental legislation mandate that each spatial object is assigned an identifier conforming to specific lexical rules.
NOTE 2: These rules are often inconsistent so a spatial object may be assigned multiple identifiers which are used for object referencing to link information to the spatial object. [Source: Feature Catalogue 'INSPIRE application schemas' http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/data-model/approved/r4618/fc/#_C33431]

-- Guidance --
Data Providers reporting under WFD must use the default value 'euProtectedAreaCode' for the thematicIdIdentifierScheme attribute.</xs:documentation>

					<xs:element name="beginLifespanVersion" type="wfd:WiseDateTimeType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition --
Date and time at which this version of the spatial object was inserted or changed in the spatial data set. 

-- Description --
NOTE This date is recorded to enable the generation of change only update files. 

-- Guidance --
Conditional. Data Providers should report this information, if available. Data Providers must report this information if the endLifespanVersion value is reported.</xs:documentation>
						</xs:annotation>
					</xs:element>
					<xs:element name="endLifespanVersion" type="wfd:WiseDateTimeType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition --
Date and time at which this version of the spatial object was superseded or retired in the spatial data set.

-- Description --
NOTE This date is recorded primarily for those systems which "close" an entry in the spatial data set in the event of an attribute change.

-- Guidance --
Optional. If the version of the spatial object being reported is still unchanged in the national datasets, then Data Providers are not required to provide this information. For example, Data Providers reporting under WFD 2016 should report the current version of the spatial object: therefore the endLifespanVersion attribute is not required. This attribute is kept in the data model to allow future updates and support the traceability of changes to objects previously reported.</xs:documentation>

Note 1: Semantically, this attribute is equivalent to the supersedesIdentifier attribute in the MonitoringSite dataset.

-- Guidance --
Conditional. This information must be provided if the presently reported object supersedes other objects previously reported. Data Providers should report a comma-separated list with the thematicIdIdentifier of the objects that have been deactivated/replaced by the presently reported object. Note that this applies even if the geometry of the deactivated/replaced object was not reported. Note that this attribute does not apply to the case where a newer version of the same object is being reported.</xs:documentation>

						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition --
Identifier defining the scheme used to assign the identifier value(s) in the predecessorsIdentifier attribute.

-- Guidance --
Conditional. This information must be provided if the attribute predecessorsIdentifier is reported. Data Providers reporting under WFD must use the default value 'euProtectedAreaCode' for the predecessorsIdentifierScheme attribute.</xs:documentation>

					<xs:element name="successorsIdentifier" type="wfd:String254Type" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
						<xs:annotation>
							<xs:documentation>-- Definition --
In a genealogy, the newly active object(s) that replaces(replace) the current one.
Note 1:  this attribute is equivalent to the supersedesIdentifier attribute in the MonitoringSite dataset.

-- Guidance --
Conditional. This information must be provided if the presently reported object has been replaced. Data Providers should report the comma-separated list with the thematicIdIdentifier (i.e. the euProtectedAreaCode) of the objects that replace the presently reported object. Note that this attribute does not apply to the case where a newer version of the same object exists.</xs:documentation>

The geometry representing the spatial extent of the spatial object.

-- Guidance --
The geometry of a Management Area, Restriction or Regulation Zone can be defined using any geometry representation.  The separation between polygon and polyline geometries in different data sets is only due to the limitations of the shapefile format (and the requirement that the shapefile format be supported and it's conversion to GML). Data providers can use this dataset to report protected areas  if the geometry is point.</xs:documentation>
