Geographic features need not\r\n> be physical things; any thing with properties that are bounded in space\r\n> may be considered a feature. GeoJSON provides a means of representing\r\n> both the properties and spatial extent of features.\r\n> \r\n> The GeoJSON format specification was published at http://geojson.org in\r\n> 2008. GeoJSON today plays an important and growing role in many spatial\r\n> databases, web APIs, and open data platforms. Consequently the\r\n> implementers increasingly demand formal standardization, improvements in\r\n> the specification, guidance on extensibility, and the means to utilize\r\n> larger GeoJSON datasets.\r\n> \r\n> This WG will work on a GeoJSON Format RFC that specifies the format more\r\n> precisely, serves as a better guide for implementers, and improves\r\n> extensibility of the format. The work will start from an Internet-Draft\r\n> written by the original GeoJSON authors: draft-butler-geojson [1].\r\n> \r\n> This WG will work on GeoJSON mappings of 'geo' URIs, reinforcing the use\r\n> of RFC 5870.\r\n> \r\n> This WG will work on a format for a streamable sequence of GeoJSON texts\r\n> based on RFC 7464 (JSON Text Sequences) to address the difficulties in\r\n> serializing very large sequences of features or feature sequences of\r\n> indeterminate length.\r\n> \r\n> GeoJSON objects represent geographic features only and do not specify\r\n> associations between geographic features and particular devices, users,\r\n> or facilities. Any association with a particular device, user, or\r\n> facility requires another protocol. When a GeoJSON object is used in a\r\n> context where it identifies the location of a device, user, or facility,\r\n> it becomes subject to the architectural, security, and privacy\r\n> considerations in RFC 6280, An Architecture for Location and Location\r\n> Privacy in Internet Applications. The application of those considerations\r\n> is specific to protocols that make use of GeoJSON objects and is out of\r\n> scope for the GeoJSON WG. Although the WG is chartered to improve the\r\n> extensibility of the format, extensions that would allow GeoJSON objects\r\n> to specify associations between geographic features and particular\r\n> devices, users, or facilities are not expected to be defined in the WG.\r\n> Should that be needed, re-chartering will be required.\r\n> \r\n> Deliverables:\r\n> \r\n> * A GeoJSON format specification document including mappings of 'geo'\r\n> URIs \r\n> * A document describing a format for a streamable sequence of GeoJSON\r\n> texts\r\n> \r\n> [1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-butler-geojson\r\n> \r\n> Milestones:"}}
