public interface ILcdHolding
extends ILcdDataObject, ILcdProcedure

This interface describes the geometry and the relationships of a holding pattern. A holding pattern is defined by a waypoint (its position) the bearing of the inbound track to the waypoint, the distance of the inbound track to the waypoint and the direction of turn at the waypoint. The latter three elements are stored in the one and only procedure leg of the holding.

Attributes and relationships in AIS domain objects can be required or optional. When unspecified, an attribute or relationship is optional. Note that most optional attributes are modeled using features.

In future releases of AIS, optional attributes or relationship may be added to this interface. When this would happen, existing implementations may just return a specified default value for these new attributes or relationships (for instance 'null'). This will require a minimal effort to update existing code to a new version of AIS.
