DescribeTaskingRequestResponse

With the DescribeTaskingRequestResponse the service provides information on the adjustable parameters. This includes the parameter-ID, the unit of parameters and value ranges.

Parameters

Mandatory parameters for this answer:

• taskingDescriptor - contains all the necessary information to configure a sensor

This example of a DescribeTaskingRequestResponse is taken from
OpenGIS ® Sensor Planning Service Implementation Specification, Document 07-014r3.
It contains the adjustable parameters of a camera, that can be controlled via the Internet.
