All,

Regarding the "geo": "schema:geo" in elf-index.jsonld, I was wondering to what extent we could use http://schema.org/geoMidpoint instead. This might be really useful for non Point-based features (ex : Aquifer -> see https://github.com/opengeospatial/ELFIE/blob/master/data/FR_surface_ground_surface_roundtrip/Aquifer_507AC00.json ).

What do you think ?

jkreft-usgs commented 7 years ago

I think that there is a very strong case for including geomidpoint in the index, along with geoshape

dblodgett-usgs commented 6 years ago

Do we know if there is an existing practice that search engines prefer?

I hacked geojson in for geoshape... which is probably a big no-no, but it worked. What will actually get used though?

dblodgett-usgs commented 6 years ago

I found that geoMidPoint is meant to be used with geoCircle only. I think we want to avoid mis-using schema.org. Going to close this.
