/**

 * Vertical domain of resource.

 *

 * @departure integration

 *   ISO 19115 provides two ways to define a coordinate reference system,

 *   with the restriction that only one of those two ways can be used:

 *   <ol>

 *     <li><code>verticalCRS</code>   of type <code>SC_VerticalCRS</code>     (from ISO 19111),</li>

 *     <li><code>verticalCRSId</code> of type <code>MD_ReferenceSystem</code> (from ISO 19115).</li>

 *   </ol>

 *   GeoAPI provides only the first way, because the <code>MD_ReferenceSystem</code> type

 *   has been intentionally omitted in order to have a single CRS framework (the ISO 19111 one).

 *

 * Note: gvSIG derived these interfaces from GeoAPI in order to have a simpler API and also to

 * avoid namespace collisions (e.g. GeoAPI 3 vs GeoTools interfaces). There is no plans

 * to evolve these interfaces to adapt them to future GeoAPI versions.
