Feature Objects are comprised of layers of points, lines, and polygons. The primary use of these kind of data in WMS is for modeling watersheds where points represent junctions (outlets of basins), lines represent the stream network, and polygons the basin boundaries. WMS combines all three feature objects into a single coverage or layer called the drainage coverage. Besides the drainage coverage, there are several other uses of Feature Object data in WMS as can be seen on the next several slides.
