Hi. I've been working on the CRS material in the best practice document to make sure that the introductory material and each of the two CRS-related best practices are clear and don't overlap. Updates to the intro were largely editorial. But BP17 has had a significant update. I've merged it into the Editor's Draft [1], but see this commit [2] for details. The commit comment reads: ``` Refocus BP17 on “State how coordinate values are encoded”, making the subject matter clear about how a publisher can provide enough information about how coordinate values are encoded so that a user isn’t left with any ambiguity. Overlap with BP3 and CRS intro material now removed. I hope the examples are right! ``` The last comment is a plea for someone to review the examples I've included. They're hand-written, so may include errors. Also, it being the weekend, it seems my brain has gone to sleep - so I might not have written my JSON-LD (etc.) correctly :) Lastly, (and this should be amusing seeing as I'm writing a BP that says "get your CRS axes the right way around") can you WG members check whether I've got latitude and longitude the right way around in the examples. I think: - GeoJSON (based on OGC CRS84) is Long/Lat - schema/GeoShape is Lat/Long - EPSG:4326 is Lat/Long. Next up is a spring-clean for BP3 (the other CRS best practice) so that it discusses "how to choose the right CRS" and basically say: WGS84 _and_ what ever else your users are yelling for. BR, Jeremy PS: Kudos to Andrea - I've repurposed some of his fine examples with geometries of Anne Frank's House!
