I believe that unfortunately the existing schemes, such as NAICS, are ill-suited for consumer-friendly labeling of POIs. I will present some of the challenges and why industry category schemes are unlikely to be appropriate. I will also briefly discuss an non-WG attempt within the IETF GEOPRIV effort to address this issue by creating a taxonomy more similar to GPS POI labeling and suited for consumer applications.
