Hey,
I have some questions/remarks on the "Complete Datamodel in WON" section
Markus wrote up yesterday:

GeoCoordinatesValue := 'GeoCoordinatesValue(' decimal decimal

Altitude is probably something we will not have in many cases, so I think
this ought to be optional. Another optional argument would be the globe to
which the coordinates belong.
Agree and there should be a default coordinate system such as EPSG:4326 (
http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/4326/).
Different globes have different ways of measuring
coordinates, so a
specific set of coordinates that is valid on one might mean something else
on another and simply be invalid on a third.
Agree with that.
And I think it should be GeoCoordinateValue, not GeoCoordinatesValue.
Cheers,
Katie
