Re: Non-schema.org ontologies

Data.gov.au has toiletmap datasets alongside many other datasets.

These toilets cannot be found in Google and no ontology exists for it in
schema.org at present.

Perhaps alongside an array of other "human centric" stuff, like water
fountains, etc. Etc.

Some ontology can ve found elsewhere and whilst I think some of the
linguistics could be added to schema.org directly, I'd still like to
produce a solution to help people find toilets tomorrow rather than waiting
till we can standardise something for schema.org

So therein; yes, you kinda answered the questions, but it didn't seem like
the correct answer.

Toilet data exists.  Google doesn't know how to provide that information to
people.

Seems unimportant I guess.
