gml:Node

gml:Node represents the 0-dimensional primitive.
The optional coboundary of a node (gml:directedEdge) is a sequence of directed edges which are incident on this node. Edges emanating from this node appear in the node coboundary with a negative orientation. 
If provided, the aggregationType attribute shall have the value "sequence".
A node may optionally be realised by a 0-dimensional geometric primitive (gml:pointProperty).
