1.4 Future work

Improvements in this document are desirable ฀ by testing and analyzing the use of JSON data encoded according to the encoding rule in more depth ฀ in particular by improving the GeoServices JSON encoding rule, e.g. by using domains and aliases as tested in the demo service ฀ by developing a JSON schema for GeoJSON and extending the JSON Schema encoding rules with GeoJSON options ฀ by testing potential extensions of the GeoServices JSON encoding, e.g. for including hyperlinks ฀ by testing and analyzing in more depth, if UML can be useful to model templates for SWE Common data components In a future revision of the SWE Common Data Model, the incorrect statement that “all elements are substitutable for gml:AbstractValue and thus transitively for gml:AbstractObject so that they can be used directly by GML application schemas” should be removed. In such a revision it could also be considered, if the SWE Common encoding rule see 7.2 should be included in the standard.
