It seems to me much harder to ensure interoperability and "linked data" without a common geographic reference. Maybe every space can at least have a geographic anchor for the enclosing building, then use a local grid reference system (x,y,z) to go from the building's anchor to the individual space. Yes, I was thinking along the same lines but didn't want to introduce more food for thought in my previous e-mail. A combined lat/lon/alt starting point with an x/y/z offset seems a very useful anchor type. > Can you post your suggestions to the wiki? I will, I just wanted to get some initial response from the mailing list before tearing apart the wiki with my thought process. I'll probably get around to updating it later today or else tomorrow.
