gml:OperationMethod

gml:OperationMethod is a method (algorithm or procedure) used to perform a coordinate operation. Most operation methods use a number of operation parameters, although some coordinate conversions use none. Each coordinate operation using the method assigns values to these parameters.
The parameter elements are an unordered list of associations to the set of operation parameters and parameter groups used by this operation method.
