    I’m not sure I agree with that.
     
    A library of locations could be used (as an advantage) for either case to ensure commonality and consistency regardless.
     
    In one case it would be referenced.

     
    In another it would be copied. But the value of having a ‘library’ of location to represent common constructs of location is valuable whether referenced or copied.

    Yes, if we do an embedded version, which it sounds like is the current trend, then we would not need a library.

    At this point why make it an SDO why not just:


     


    3. No Location SDO and embed information in objects, and make is an “Optional' field


     


    Since we’re creating a library, what purpose is there to create a stand alone Object?

    So if we were going to do this, we would probably need to build a library of locations by country and regions and publish them as a Committee Note and hope people just use the them for locations
    at the granularity of a country or group of countries.

    You are assuming that we don't create a repository of "standard" location SDOs for things like continent and country names - IE the things that people would want to share in
    the first place. Which, I don't see why we would not do this, seeing how we're doing it for things like CAPEC.
