DefaultVerticalCS
A one-dimensional coordinate system used to record the heights (or depths) of points. Such a coordinate system is
usually dependent on the Earth's gravity field, perhaps loosely as when atmospheric pressure is the basis for the
vertical coordinate system axis. An exact definition is deliberately not provided as the complexities of the subject
fall outside the scope of this specification. A
VerticalCS
shall have one axis
association.
