GeoIRI

GeoIRI is an experimental implementation of a URI/IRI space meant to denote arbitrary geometries, in arbitrary coordinate reference systems, by resolvable HTTP URI/IRIs.

This work builds upon the pioneering approach adopted by Ian Davis at PlaceTime.com for spatial coordinates, where two-dimensional points in the WGS84 datum are encoded directly in the relevant URI, which is then resolved to different representations based on HTTP content negotiation.

For a description and installation instructions of GeoIRI see the wiki.
