Abstract Test Suite GeoJSON mentions SRS's that cannot be specified #452

Closed redmer closed 7 months ago

redmer commented 7 months ago

The abstract test suite says in § A.3.4.2:

The IRI \http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84\ shall be assumed as the SRS for geo:geoJSONLiteral instances that do not specify an explicit SRS IRI.

Yet an explicit SRS IRI cannot be specified in a GeoJSON literal, per Req 26, which says:

RDFS Literals of type geo:geoJSONLiteral do not contain a SRS definition. All literals of this type shall, according to the GeoJSON specification, be encoded only in, and be assumed to use, the WGS84 geodetic longitude-latitude spatial reference system (http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84).

I had hoped that this could refer to JSON-FG but alas that does not extend the "geometry": {} JSON object, but rather specifies a new co-ordinate "place": {} object.

Hi @redmer thanks for picking this up. To clarify:

As for JSON-FG: That would require a JSON-FG literal which we did not define in GeoSPARQL 1.1. If there is demand for that we could think about adding it for next revisions.

We changed the wording for the better, so that issue can be closed now
