Hi Peter, 

Thanks for your detailed response. One thing we decided since my original
query was to move the YANG geo-location type out of the
ietf-routing-types.yang model since we thought that we didn’t have enough
review and experience to model it correctly. We are going to put it in a
separate YANG model and, based on your response, there may be more than
one YANG type. 

We will be discussing this in the future.

Thanks,
Acee
