Re: POIs, Places, GeoSemWeb

Moving POIs is a complex topic. OGC has done much work to support the idea of things that move over time:
"Sensor Observation Service"
http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/sos

"OWS-8 Analysis of OGC Standards for Supporting Mobile Object Processing Implementation (Engineering Report)"
https://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/?artifact_id=46170

"OGC Standard for Moving Features; Requirements"
https://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/?artifact_id=51623

Whether these concepts should be put into a POI data model is debatable. I feel it would make the POI model too complex, but perhaps an extension of the core POI model could add this support by allowing the location to have a timestamp field. I hesitate to make this part of the core functionality due to the complexity, and the fact that there is a very large audience for a fixed location POI data model.
