Right, I was imagining (for JDIL) wrapping GeoJSON in something like
{
"@namespaces": {
"geojson": "http://namespace.geojson.org/1.0/"
},
"@type": "geojson:FeatureCollection",
"geojson:object": object
}
where object is a GeoJSON FeatureCollection object as described in our spec.
This would mean nothing at all for the GeoJSON spec. Additional members
could be added throughout the GeoJSON object, giving you additional
@type or @id values.
Would this do the trick? To be clear, I'm talking about doing nothing
to the spec - only encouraging folks to wrap GeoJSON in something like
the above if they want to integrate data JDIL style.
