The OGC model and the grass-roots, GeoJSON-style model both have their own pros and cons, admittedly, but at least with those two models you know where you stand. -mpg > On Mar 3, 2015, at 1:13 AM, Even Rouault <[email protected]> wrote: > > With my mostly uninformed eyes in that topic, I don't know if OGC is the most > relevant organization in that matter.
