Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-965) UpdateGeoJSON Reference to RFC7946


     [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-965?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stefan Hagen updated ODATA-965:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
The GeoJSON community submitted it's standard as an internet draft to IETF. 

This lead to the foundation of the IETF Geographic JSON Working Group (https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/geojson/charter/). 

As of August, 11 2016 the GeoJSON specification now is the RFC 7946 (on the internet standards track). 
We should reference this one instead of the intermediate draft (after evaluation of the changes cited below from the RFC, Appendix B):

Appendix B.  Changes from the Pre-IETF GeoJSON Format Specification

   This appendix briefly summarizes non-editorial changes from the 2008
   specification [GJ2008].

B.1.  Normative Changes

   o  Specification of coordinate reference systems has been removed,
      i.e., the "crs" member of [GJ2008] is no longer used.

   o  In the absence of elevation values, applications sensitive to
      height or depth SHOULD interpret positions as being at local
      ground or sea level (see Section 4).

   o  Implementations SHOULD NOT extend position arrays beyond 3
      elements (see Section 3.1.1).

   o  A line between two positions is a straight Cartesian line (see
      Section 3.1.1).

   o  Polygon rings MUST follow the right-hand rule for orientation
      (counterclockwise external rings, clockwise internal rings).

   o  The values of a "bbox" array are "[west, south, east, north]", not
      "[minx, miny, maxx, maxy]" (see Section 5).

   o  A Feature object's "id" member is a string or number (see
      Section 3.2).
   o  Extensions MAY be used, but MUST NOT change the semantics of
      GeoJSON members and types (see Section 6).

   o  GeoJSON objects MUST NOT contain the defining members of other
      types (see Section 7.1).

   o  The media type for GeoJSON is "application/geo+json".

B.2.  Informative Changes

   o  The definition of a GeoJSON text has been added.

   o  Rules for mapping 'geo' URIs have been added.

   o  A recommendation of the I-JSON [RFC7493] constraints has been
      added.

   o  Implementers are cautioned about the effect of excessive
      coordinate precision on interoperability.

   o  Interoperability concerns of GeometryCollections are noted.  These
      objects should be used sparingly (see Section 3.1.8).
