Subject: Re: Separation of Presentation from the Places/Things

Must admit, those descriptions just confused me utterly :-/

"Location" -  How does a 3d construct describe where a place is?
surely a 3d construct is what you put -at- a specified location, not
the data that specifies the location.
[<KS>] Right. That one concerns me as well. Here is my POV - As navigable maps go from 2D to 3D this 3D data will be location relative. 3D information is additional information about the place. Parts of the 3d model must be able to bind to the road network and or other positional geometry. Visually it can use to recognize a place.

In this example, what acts as a trigger for the display; The
"Location" or the "POI" ?(that is, what data does the client device,
such as a phone, use to know if something should be visible, and where
to place it if it is).
[<KS>]  IF a device wanted to display a POI,s brand icon over a view, for example, the where to put the icon is available in the "location" primitive, the icon image is part of the POIs extended attribution, the name of the POI and its persistent  and unique ID is part of the base POI attribution.
