GeoJSON is a collaborative project to to determine what, if any, geographic content can be encoded in JSON.
GeoJSON Encodings
- GeoJSON Web Map Context, derived from OGC Web Map Context
- GeoJSON Features, derived from OGC Geography Markup Language (GML)
Other GeoJSON Encoding Candidates
- OGC Web Feature Service (WFS), with an emphasis on WFS Simple
Useful links
- GeoJSON - one of the first attempts to encode geographic data in JSON (with the name kindly donated to this effort)
- JIDL - "describes a simple scheme for implementing namespaced vocabularies in JSON"
- Geowanking mailing list thread "JSON for GEO"
