Introduction In many applications we would like to specify the location of something geographically. Some examples of locations in networking might be the location of data center, a rack in an internet exchange point, a router, a firewall, a port on some device, or it could be the endpoints of a fiber, or perhaps the failure point along a fiber. Additionally, while this location is typically relative to The Earth, it does not need to be. Indeed it is easy to imagine a network or device located on The Moon, on Mars, on Enceladus (the moon of Saturn) or even a comet (e.g., 67p/churyumov-gerasimenko). Finally, one can imagine defining locations using different frames of reference or even alternate systems (e.g., simulations or virtual realities). This document defines a "geo-location" YANG grouping that allows for all of the above data to be captured. Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 2] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 This specification conforms to [ISO.6709.2008]. The YANG data model described in this document conforms to the Network Management Datastore Architecture defined in [RFC8342]. 1.1. Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 2. The Geo Location Object 2.1. Frame of Reference The frame of reference ("reference-frame") defines what the location values refer to and their meaning. The referred to object can be any astronomical body. It could be a planet such as The Earth or Mars, a moon such as Enceladus, an asteroid such as Ceres, or even a comet such as 1P/Halley. This value is specified in "astronomical-body" and is defined by the International Astronomical Union (http://www.iau.org), The default "astronomical-body" value is "earth". In addition to identifying the astronomical body we also need to define the meaning of the coordinates (e.g., latitude and longitude) and the definition of 0-height. This is done with a "geodetic-datum" value. The default value for "geodetic-datum" is "wgs-84" (i.e., the World Geodetic System, [WGS84]), which is used by the Global Positioning System (GPS) among many others. We define an IANA registry for specifying standard values for the "geodetic-datum". In addition to the "geodetic-datum" value we allow refining the coordinate and height accuracy using "coord-accuracy" and "height- accuracy" respectively. When specified these values override the defaults implied by the "geodetic-datum" value. Finally, we define an optional feature which allows for changing the system for which the above values are defined. This optional feature adds an "alternate-system" value to the reference frame. This value is normally not present which implies the natural universe is the system. The use of this value is intended to allow for creating virtual realities or perhaps alternate coordinate systems. The definition of alternate systems is outside the scope of this document. Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 3] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 2.2. Location This is the location on or relative to the astronomical object. It is specified using 2 or 3 coordinates values. These values are given either as "latitude", "longitude", and an optional "height", or as Cartesian coordinates of "x", "y" and "z". For the standard location choice "latitude" and "longitude" are specified as fractions of decimal degrees, and the "height" value is in fractions of meters. For the Cartesian choice "x", "y" and "z" are in fractions of meters. In both choices the exact meanings of all of the values are defined by the "geodetic-datum" value in the Section 2.1. 2.3. Motion Support is added for objects in relatively stable motion. For objects in relatively stable motion the grouping provides a 3-dimensional vector value. The components of the vector are "v-north", "v-east" and "v-up" which are all given in fractional meters per second. The values "v-north" and "v-east" are relative to true-north as defined by the reference frame for the astronomical body, "v-up" is perpendicular to the plane defined by "v-north" and "v-east", and is pointed away from the center of mass. To derive the 2-dimensional heading and speed one would use the following formulas: ,------------------------------ speed = V v_{north}^{2} + v_{east}^{2} heading = arctan(v_{east} / v_{north}) For some applications that demand high accuracy, and where the data is infrequently updated this velocity vector can track very slow movement such as continental drift. Tracking more complex forms of motion is outside the scope of this work. The intent of the grouping being defined here is to identify where something is located, and generally this is expected to be somewhere on or relative to the Earth (or another astronomical body). At least two options are available to YANG models that wish to use this grouping with objects that are changing location frequently in non-simple ways, they can add additional motion data to their model directly, or if the application allows it can require more frequent queries to keep the location data current. Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 4] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 2.4. Nested Locations When locations are nested (e.g., a building may have a location which houses routers that also have locations) the module using this grouping is free to indicate in its definition that the "reference- frame" is inherited from the containing object so that the "reference-frame" need not be repeated in every instance of location data. 2.5. Non-location Attributes During the development of this module, the question of whether it would support data such as orientation arose. These types of attributes are outside the scope of this grouping because they do not deal with a location but rather describe something more about the object that is at the location. Module authors are free to add these non-location attributes along with their use of this location grouping. 2.6. Tree The following is the YANG tree diagram [RFC8340] for the geo-location grouping.

The tests and results are given in the following table along with an explanation of non-applicable tests.

For "A.1.2.3" we do not define our own CRS, and doing so is not required for conformance. For "A.1.2.6" we do not define a text string representation, which is also not required for conformance. 5. Usability The geo-location object defined in this document and YANG module have been designed to be usable in a very broad set of applications. This includes the ability to locate things on astronomical bodies other than The Earth, and to utilize entirely different coordinate systems and realities. Many systems make use of geo-location data, and so it's important to be able describe this data using this geo-location object defined in this document. Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 12] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 5.1. Portability In order to verify portability while developing this module the following standards and standard APIs and were considered. 5.1.1. IETF URI Value [RFC5870] defines a standard URI value for geographic location data. It includes the ability to specify the "geodetic-value" (it calls this "crs") with the default being "wgs-84" [WGS84]. For the location data it allows 2 to 3 coordinates defined by the "crs" value. For accuracy it has a single "u" parameter for specifying uncertainty. The "u" value is in fractions of meters and applies to all the location values. As the URI is a string, all values are specifies as strings and so are capable of as much precision as required. URI values can be mapped to and from the YANG grouping, with the caveat that some loss of precision (in the extremes) may occur due to the YANG grouping using decimal64 values rather than strings. 5.1.2. W3C See https://w3c.github.io/geolocation-api/#dom-geolocationposition. W3C Defines a geo-location API in [W3CGEO]. We show a snippet of code below which defines the geo-location data for this API. This is used by many application (e.g., Google Maps API). interface GeolocationPosition { readonly attribute GeolocationCoordinates coords; readonly attribute DOMTimeStamp timestamp; }; interface GeolocationCoordinates { readonly attribute double latitude; readonly attribute double longitude; readonly attribute double? altitude; readonly attribute double accuracy; readonly attribute double? altitudeAccuracy; readonly attribute double? speed; }; Figure 1: Snippet Showing Geo-Location Definition Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 13] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 5.1.2.1. Compare with YANG Model +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | Field | Type | YANG | Type | +==================+==============+=================+=============+ | accuracy | double | coord-accuracy | dec64 fr 6 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | altitude | double | height | dec64 fr 6 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | altitudeAccuracy | double | height-accuracy | dec64 fr 6 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | heading | double | v-north, v-east | dec64 fr 12 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | latitude | double | latitude | dec64 fr 16 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | longitude | double | longitude | dec64 fr 16 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | speed | double | v-north, v-east | dec64 fr 12 | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ | timestamp | DOMTimeStamp | timestamp | string | +------------------+--------------+-----------------+-------------+ Table 2 accuracy (double) Accuracy of "latitude" and "longitude" values in meters. altitude (double) Optional height in meters above the [WGS84] ellipsoid. altitudeAccuracy (double) Optional accuracy of "altitude" value in meters. heading (double) Optional Direction in decimal deg from true north increasing clock-wise. latitude, longitude (double) Standard lat/long values in decimal degrees. speed (double) Speed along heading in meters per second. timestamp (DOMTimeStamp) Specifies milliseconds since the Unix EPOCH in 64 bit unsigned integer. The YANG model defines the timestamp with arbitrarily large precision by using a string which encompasses all representable values of this timestamp value. W3C API values can be mapped to the YANG grouping, with the caveat Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 14] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 that some loss of precision (in the extremes) may occur due to the YANG grouping using decimal64 values rather than doubles. Conversely, only YANG values for The Earth using the default "wgs-84" [WGS84] as the "geodetic-datum", can be directly mapped to the W3C values, as W3C does not provide the extra features necessary to map the broader set of values supported by the YANG grouping. 5.1.3. Geography Markup Language (GML) ISO adopted the Geography Markup Language (GML) defined by OGC 07-036 as [ISO.19136.2007]. GML defines, among many other things, a position type "gml:pos" which is a sequence of "double" values. This sequence of values represent coordinates in a given CRS. The CRS is either inherited from containing elements or directly specified as attributes "srsName" and optionally "srsDimension" on the "gml:pos". GML defines an Abstract CRS type which Concrete CRS types derive from. This allows for many types of CRS definitions. We are concerned with the Geodetic CRS type which can have either ellipsoidal or Cartesian coordinates. We believe that other non- Earth based CRS as well as virtual CRS should also be representable by the GML CRS types as well. Thus GML "gml:pos" values can be mapped directly to the YANG grouping, with the caveat that some loss of precision (in the extremes) may occur due to the YANG grouping using decimal64 values rather than doubles. Conversely, YANG grouping values can be mapped to GML as directly as the GML CRS available definitions allow with a minimum of Earth-based geodetic systems fully supported. GML also defines an observation value in "gml:Observation" which includes a timestamp value "gml:validTime" in addition to other components such as "gml:using" "gml:target" and "gml:resultOf". Only the timestamp is mappable to and from the YANG grouping. Furthermore "gml:validTime" can either be an Instantaneous measure ("gml:TimeInstant") or a time period ("gml:TimePeriod"). The instantaneous "gml:TimeInstant" is mappable to and from the YANG grouping "timestamp" value, and values down to the resolution of seconds for "gml:TimePeriod" can be mapped using the using the "valid-for" node of the YANG grouping. Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 15] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 5.1.4. KML KML 2.2 [KML22] (formerly Keyhole Markup Language) was submitted by Google to Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) https://www.opengeospatial.org/ and was adopted. The latest version as of this writing is KML 2.3 [KML23]. This schema includes geographic location data in some of its objects (e.g., "kml:Point" or "kml:Camera" objects). This data is provided in string format and corresponds to the [W3CGEO] values. The timestamp value is also specified as a string as in our YANG grouping. KML has some special handling for the height value useful for visualization software, "kml:altitudeMode". These values for "kml:altitudeMode" include indicating the height is ignored ("clampToGround"), in relation to the location's ground level ("relativeToGround"), or in relation to the geodetic datum ("absolute"). The YANG grouping can directly map the ignored and absolute cases, but not the relative to ground case. In addition to the "kml:altitudeMode" KML also defines two seafloor height values using "kml:seaFloorAltitudeMode". One value is to ignore the height value ("clampToSeaFloor") and the other is relative ("relativeToSeaFloor"). As with the "kml:altitudeMode" value, the YANG grouping supports the ignore case but not the relative case. The KML location values use a geodetic datum defined in Annex A by the GML Coordinate Reference System (CRS) [ISO.19136.2007] with identifier "LonLat84_5773". The altitude value for KML absolute height mode is measured from the vertical datum specified by [WGS84]. Thus the YANG grouping and KML values can be directly mapped in both directions (when using a supported altitude mode) with the caveat that some loss of precision (in the extremes) may occur due to the YANG grouping using decimal64 values rather than strings. For the relative height cases the application doing the transformation is expected to have the data available to transform the relative height into an absolute height which can then be expressed using the YANG grouping. 6. IANA Considerations 6.1. Geodetic System Value Registry This registry allocates names for standard geodetic systems. Often these values are referred to using multiple names (e.g., full names or multiple acronyms values). The intent of this registry is to provide a single standard value for any given geodetic system. Hopps Expires 16 August 2020 [Page 16] Internet-Draft YANG Geo Location February 2020 The values SHOULD use an acronym when available, they MUST be converted to lower case, and spaces MUST be changed to dashes "-". Each entry should be sufficient to define the 3 coordinate values (2 if height is not required). So for example the "wgs-84" is defined as WGS-84 with the geoid updated by at least [EGM96] for height values. Specific entries for [EGM96] and [EGM08] are present if a more precise definition of the data is required. It should be noted that [RFC5870] also creates a registry for Geodetic Systems (it calls CRS); however, this registry has a very strict modification policy. The authors of [RFC5870] have the stated goal of making CRS registration hard to avoid proliferation of CRS values. As our module defines alternate systems and has a broader (beyond earth) scope, the registry defined below is meant to be more easily modified. The allocation policy for this registry is First Come First Served, [RFC8126] as the intent is simply to avoid duplicate values. The initial values for this registry are as follows. +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | Name | Description | +============+======================================================+ | me | Mean Earth/Polar Axis (Moon) | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | mola-vik-1 | MOLA Height, IAU Viking-1 PM (Mars) | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | wgs-84-96 | World Geodetic System 1984 [WGS84] w/ EGM96 | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | wgs-84-08 | World Geodetic System 1984 [WGS84] w/ [EGM08] | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | wgs-84 | World Geodetic System 1984 [WGS84] (EGM96 or | | | better) | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ Table 3 7. Security Considerations This document defines a common geo location grouping using the YANG data modeling language. The grouping itself has no security or privacy impact on the Internet, but the usage of the grouping in concrete YANG modules might have. The security considerations spelled out in the YANG 1.1 specification [RFC7950] apply for this document as well.
