Dave, hi, Are you referring to NeoGeo [1]? The GLD charter provides the option to create a vocab in this area and the ISA CV on location is to be 'an input'. IMO - and it is just my opinion, not the settled view of the GLD WG or W3C - we could look at combining NeoGeo (geometry, maps and all that) with ISA CV (yes, geometries but also addresses that an be derived directly from INSPIRE data) and create something very useful. I have exchanged e-mails with Andreas (it's my turn to write again) on this but is there somewhere else we should be looking too? N.B. There's also the Point of Interest WG in which some of the OGC chaps are involved too [2] Phil [1] http://geovocab.org/doc/neogeo.html [2] http://www.w3.org/2010/POI/documents/Core/core-20111216.html On 03/04/2012 17:23, Dave Reynolds wrote: > What is the status of the "Geography and Spatial Information" standard > vocabulary [1]? > > Is there active work on this?
