OGCJSON aims to get your axis in order
So this happened:

Make sure you click on that link to read something quite interesting. Howard Butler’s response is well thought out that I’ll just let him frame the situation. I myself am curious if there is really any need to fork GeoJSON into “OGCJSON” to solve something I’m not sure really is any issue. As others have said on Twitter, GML was designed to handle just these issues. I don’t want to get down the rabbit hole of being critical of OGC, but what’s the point of creating these standards (KML, GML, etc) and then not use them?
Why does this come to mind every time I heard the OGC thinking about creating a new “standard”?

Hangouts with James Fee:: Developer? I Hardly Knew Her!
Bill Dollins of Zekiah joined me to talk about geospatial developer topics. We hit cutting edge technology and the realities of working within a stack of technology you may not enjoy. The IRC log is located here.

This Week’s Hangout with Bill Dollins
There has been lots of talk about new technology in the geospatial world. From SVG and JavaScript to open and GitHub, it’s easy to forget most of us have a job to do. Well I’ve got Bill Dollins joining me to help try and fight through the hype and figure out how to utilize some of these great projects in your every day workflows. Not everyone can abandon Oracle or .NET for PostGIS or Ruby but that doesn’t mean you can’t bring things into those workflows to get work done. You can watch live right here on this blog Wednesday at 11am MST/PDT.
