Pick One: A or B. Note that the UML is again sketchy and not complete. The gray area seems to be what we're talking about right now.
| Operation - An operation is a specification of a transformation or query that an object may be called to execute. It has a name and a list of parameters. [The Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual, pg 369] |
| Interface - A named set of operations that characterize the behavior of an element. [The Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual, pg 310] |
| OGC Web Service - A collection of 1 or more operations, including GetCapabilities. If any operation is part of an interface, all required operations of that interface must be included. |
| GetCapabilities - An operation returning an XML description of all operations instantiated in a given OGC Web Service instance. |
| OGC Basic Service Model - A model describing Common Elements and the GetCapabilities operation. |
| OGC Web Service Implementation Specification- A document describing one or more operations or interfaces that must conform to the OGC Basic Service Model. |
| Service Registry - A searchable collection of OGC Web Service metadata |
