> Slightly off the topic, but still on this Best Practice. Should we also make more mention of WGS 84 Long/Lat (OGC CRS84) as that is the only CRS recommended for GeoJSON and the default CRS for GeoSPARQL, so is increasingly popular (however much that might infuriate old mariners & pilots :) ). There is a difference between popular practice and best practice. Yes, CRS84 is a popular CRS, but recommending it is something else. On the contrary, it could be advisable _not_ to use CRS84 outside of North America (I think both GeoJSON and GeoSPARQL were short-sighted in this respect). The standard CRS for geographical data in Europe is ETRS89. -- GitHub Notification of comment by FransKnibbe Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/sdw/issues/1326#issuecomment-1016584991 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
