Re: Requirements from UC-19

Hi Lars,

I have checked the requested existing requirements in the spreadsheet for
your use case Publishing cultural heritage data
<http://w3c.github.io/sdw/UseCases/SDWUseCasesAndRequirements.html#PublishingCulturalHeritageData>.
The new requirement you suggested for Coverage is related to representing
uncertain spatio-temporal data. This is partially covered in the Time
deliverable ("It must be possible to describe time points and intervals in
a vague, imprecise manner", tab Time, column C). For the spatial
uncertainty, I am wondering if you have cases of uncertain/fuzzy coverage
data or the problem is just on referencing vague locations in space. In
case of the latter, this could be covered with the requirement at tab
Coverage, column M. Otherwise, we can discuss whether a new requirement is
needed.

Best regards,
Alejandro
