>             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: ATOM Format
>    Affects Versions: V4.0_CS02
>            Reporter: Evan Ireland
>            Priority: Minor

> In regard to OData's use of GML for Geo-types with ATOM format, it is not specified if clients/servers can or should:
> (1) Use gml:pos (in particular for a set of points, an array of gml:pos as opposed to using a single gml:posList)?
> (2) Use gml:posList?
> (3) Use gml:coordinates (which is a deprecated GML element)?
> Also, there is no mention in OData of whether the GML srcDimension attribute should or must be indicated. When we are parsing a gml:posList, without knowing the dimension, it is next to impossible (without having a full database of SRID's to refer to) to separate the points, unless we assume only 2D systems.
