Hi Folks, A company called TerragoTech (http://www.terragotech.com/, http://geopdf.blogspot.com/) is distributing plugins for something they call GeoPDF. I think this is a smashing great idea. We all know by now how darned useful, and important, it has been to have georeferencing embedded in image formats like geotiff and jpeg2000. Wouldn't it make sense to extend this embedded location based knowing to postscript and pdf? (and others? svg?)
It should be an open standard just like geotiff and jpeg2000, but how on earth does something like this get started? (pun intended). OSGeo is an obvious organisation to start with, but after having a look around the wiki and so on and I'm not sure where/who to approach with the idea and I'm suffering from mailing list overload. The proposals page[1] doesn't have anything on formats. Anyone here involved with OSGeo and care to forward the idea?
