Geo Waypoints

An exploration of adding waypoint information to Geo data. Waypoints are a series of points, describing routes or boundaries.

To allow the publishing of waypoints in such a way that they are downloadable and parsable.

How to differentiate between a route (for example in the shape of a letter "U") and a boundary - in other words, to say whether or not, after the last point, the line returns to the first.
How to sequence/ timestamp waypoints
- Perhaps using hAtom and/ or hCalendar?

- hCard feedback
- hCard issues
location-formats - research which led to the development of Geo.
proposed extensions
- geo-extension-nonWGS84 - extend Geo for representing coordinates on other planets, moons etc.; and for other terrestrial schema
- geo-extension-waypoints - extend Geo for representing: sets of waypoints; tracks; routes; and boundaries
