Subject: RE: Sample email to interested parties WRT geo enhancements to CAP
Hi All -
We would like to get this email out to all interested CAP parties so that
we can collect requirements and move forward. I originally sent this email in
September and only heard from Rex. Other feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks and regards

enhancements to CAP A bit tardy :-)
First stab at a letter to interested party to collect additional
requirements for geo enhancements to CAP and by extension to EDXL.
Cheers

Dear < >
CAP has now been widely implemented. As a result, we are beginning to
receive considerable feedback regarding implementation experience, especially in
the realm of requirements for enhanced capabilities to express additional (and
richer) geographic elements. Some suggestions have been to allow additional
coordinate reference systems in addition to WGS-84, the ability to encode
point, line, and route features, and the ability to reference the output of
a plume model have been suggested.
Therefore, in order to document a consistent set of requirements for
potential enhancement or extensions to CAP, we are seeking your input and
experience. Please note that we are not seeking input on how to change CAP or to
implement changes in CAP. We are instead seeking either use cases or new
requirements for using/encoding/referencing geospatial content in a CAP
message.
Thank you for your help and consideration.
