David, Mike Interesting discussion Mike launched about AR viewfinders trends and now 3D geodata encoding.
I'd like to come back to the initial question about simple 3D geocoding (having sorted out 3D coordinate encoding and CRS issues): >From what I realized there is X3D (inc. a geocoding service spec.?) and there is for sure also an OGC spec. or discussion paper around for geocoding (OpenLS, Geocoder, WPS profile?). Aren't they enough? Are there more existing standards around? Do you, Mike, suggest to propose an own spec.? -S. 2009/8/28 David Colleen <[email protected]>: > Hi Mike > > This is easy in X3D (web3d.org).
