    Instead of the <gml:pos>12 4</gml:pos> tags, you can have a single
    <gml:posList>12 4.... </gml:posList> tag.
    
    One of other key benefits from reusing GML is their use of spatial 
    reference system pointers.
    Without the spatial reference system pointer, we will not be able to 
    work
    across jurisdictional boundaries who use different coordinate systems, 
    or with many legacy data sources.
