No feature type field exists for this annotation feature class. The feature type has only been included throughout the specifcation documentation for ease of reference.

Only Annotation associated with, or derived from, entities in feature classes grouped within the Industry feature dataset should exist within the IndustryAnno feature class.

Wherever possible annotation should be stored using the subclasses indicated under AnnotationClassID. Annotation stored as inline text should be kept to a minimum.

Type for large polygons and long linear features may be held in an annotation feature for each word to allow for spacing and differences in orientation, see Section 2 chapter 4.

Annotation should not contain any HTML tags within the blob element, nor should it contain any special characters.

Editing and placement of Annotation should be conducted in the appropriate MGA 1994 zone to ensure the spatial position of type on the map face can be correctly represented.
