We support the alignment.

Technically you are right about the backward incompatibility, but this problem is already adressed by the locn ontology: grafik

The usage notes of https://www.w3.org/ns/locn#locn:geometry allow nearly everything as range:

I think we should use this flexibillity and recommend a locn:geometry representation that can be proccessed by the EDP for visualization.

The semantical alignment is addressed. For processing capabilities by EDP, it might be a topic for the upcomming geoDCAT-AP aligment.
