Principle #17 – Follow OGC Guidelines regarding geospatial elements

fterpstra commented 3 years ago

discussed in web api guidelinse telecon 22-01-2021. The principle makes spatial relations explicit while the pull requests adds information on implicit relations that can be extracted from coordinates. Therefor this information on SRSs etc should not be added to principle 17. Maybe we should be more clear on the use of relations and not limit it to geospatial relations. It should apply to all relations. perhaps we should change the title and take the word geospatial out. Discussed on 5-2-2021: The more specific guidelines are the less valuable they become. We would argue to not refine the guidelines in the way suggested here.
