i agree, and in fact we have already allowed both location and address to have many location coordinates. but it may be that the current schemas dont show it yet.

I thought I'd send this to TSC because the original request for multiple locations I believe came from the TSC and I have a question about the implementation.

Referring to Monday's TC minutes:
LOCATION COORDINATES

    TM: TSC is now requesting multiple location coordinates in
    Address (contrary to what we decided last week).

       AGREED (pending review in the Atlantic call) to allow
       multiple location coordinates in Address.

    Regarding the idea of geospatial approaches for PRD3 (see URLs
    in the agenda for this meeting), we concluded that this would
    raise backward compatibility issues, and while we can design a
    workaround for those, the geospatial approach is more general,
    abstract, and sophisticated than what we need for business
    purposes (as opposed to use in emergency response, for
    example), and its adoption would add another layer of
    complexity to the UBL specification.  We reached a similar
    conclusion some time ago with regard to the possibility of
    using the CIQ TC data structure for Address.  Also, adding the
    geospatial model would introduce data types that are not
    compatible with CCTS.
and understanding the desire/need to keep things as simple as possible, I went to look at Location and LocationCoordinate to see how Ken's suggestion to use Description and Conditions would work for the Energy sector requirements.

I was happy to see the addition from 2.0 to 2.1 of 'SubsidiaryLocation', and 'LocationCoordinate' to 'Location'.  I think in 2.0 there was no link between 'Location' and 'LocationCoordinate' and I had been trying for a while to figure out how they related.

Now both 'Address' and 'Location' have 'LocationCoordinate' as associations (ASBIEs), so I'm assuming 'Address' and 'Location' are considered two distinct ways to reference a place in space, both using 'LocationCoordinate' as the way to zero in on the exact coordinates.

So, the question I have now is whether, since there has been a decision to allow 'Address' to be associated with more than one 'LocationCoordinate', will you also allow 'Location' to be associated with more than one 'LocationCoordanate'?

I think that would make sense, giving both 'Location' and 'Address' the same ability to be used to identify multiple coordinates in space.  I don't know how they originally got to be at the same level (it seems almost like 'Location' is just the generic flavor of 'Address') but since they are, it makes sense to me to try to keep them parallel in scope.

Let me know if this makes sense to you.

Thanks,
-Anne
