In a gmlcov:MultiSurfaceCoverage the domain is partioned into a collection of surfaces comprising a gml:MultiSurface.  The coverage function than maps each surface in the collection to a value in the range set.<br/>The content model is identical with gmlcov:AbstractDiscreteCoverageType, but that gml:domainSet shall have values gml:MultiSurface.<br/>In a gmlcov:MultiSurfaceCoverage the mapping from the domain to the range is straightforward.<br/>-    For gml:DataBlock encodings the surfaces of the gmlcov:MultiSurface are mapped in document order to the tuples of the data block.<br/>-    For gml:CompositeValue encodings the surfaces of the gmlcov:MultiSurface are mapped to the members of the composite value in document order.<br/>-    For gml:File encodings the surfaces of the gmlcov:MultiSurface are mapped to the records of the file in sequential order.  <br/>
