| Definitionskos:definition | At the time of finalizing this ER the OGC TC has approved the OWS Context JSON encoding that is available here: http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/owc This is the second encoding proposed for the OWS context standard precided by the Atom Encoding [OGC 12-084r2]. The OWS Context JSON enconding is based on the GeoJSON IETF standard [RFC7946]. The standard is a combination of two approaches: mapping between the OWS Context conceptual model [12-080r2] to the basic structure of a GeoJSON file. a direct conversion of the rest of the atom keys and the specific OWS Context XML into JSON following OGC 14-009r1. The conversion was designed with current GeoJSON viewers in mind (including the one embedded in GitHUB) and making possible that they can visualize a OWS Context GeoJSON file without any modifications. This ER focus on describing another encoding (a 3rd alternative) that allows for exposing geospatial resources on the web in a way that web browsers and search engines can better understand. It is widely known that HTML was designed with the linking capacity in mind. Both, users reading HTML and automatic crawlers, transverse links constantly. HTML seems the natural selection for linking geospatial data on the web. The question is how to complement the linking mechanism with some additional metadata that search engines could use for indexing. A solution could come from a mechanism which web search engines already have agreed to use for better indexing: schema.org. Schemna.org proposes three enconding for their data model: Microdata, RDFa and JSON-LD. The reader might easily get confused by the fact that OGC approved a JSON encoding for OWS context and another JSON encoding emerges in this document. This ER is NOT proposing to replace or modify the currently approved JSON enconding for OWS context based on GeoJSON. The intention is to map the OWS Context model into the schema.org model to recognize that they are very similar and propose a encoding in HTML5 that can be done in the 3 alternative proposed by schema.org. |
