// Oxygene

  ) : ITGIS_Shape;

PURPOSE: Imports vector geometry from Geography Markup Language (GML), an XML-based OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) standard used by Web Feature Service (WFS) and enterprise GIS workflows.

BEHAVIOR: Parses the XML structure, resolves GML geometry elements, and creates a shape from the extracted coordinates and geometry type.

CONSTRAINTS: GML is verbose and namespace-sensitive. Malformed XML or unsupported geometry content raises an exception.
