Labels for Common Location-Based Services
draft-forte-service-classification-00.txt
Abstract
This document creates a registry for describing the types of services
available at a specific location. The registry is expected to be
referenced by other protocols that need a common set of service terms
as protocol constants. In particular, we define location-based
service as either a point at a specific geographic location (e.g.,
bus stop) or a service covering a specific region (e.g., pizza
delivery).

Internet-Draft Service Classification January 2012
1. Introduction
Many mobile devices are now equipped to determine the user's
geographic location, either through GPS, cell-tower mapping or a
network-based triangulation mechanism. Once location information is
available, it is natural to want to look up near-by places that
provide a specific service, sometimes called points-of-interest
(POI). Examples of such services include restaurants, stores,
hospitals, automatic teller machines and museums.
To allow such systems to operate across large geographic areas and
for multiple languages, it is useful to define a common set of terms,
so that the same service is labeled with the same token regardless of
who created a particular location service. The number of different
labels is clearly potentially very large, but only a relatively small
subset of common services is of particular interest to mobile users,
such as travelers and commuters. This document focuses on labels
commonly found on maps or in navigation devices.
While a large number of lists of points of interest exist today, each
list follows its own format and guidelines. As such, these lists are
not suitable for use in standard protocols where interoperability is
of utmost importance.
This document creates a registry of service labels and an initial set
of values. The registry is protocol-agnostic and should work for all
protocols that can handle alphanumeric strings, including LoST
[RFC5222], [RFC6451].
2. Requirements notation
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
3. Location-based services
When not obvious, the definition of a particular service will be
specified in the future. In the following we enumerate a sub-set of
the most common location-based services, some of which are also
present in [RFC4589]. Many of the labels used in the following
classification were taken from [OpenStreetMap] and [Wikipedia].

4. Guidelines for the creation of new top-level services
The number of services that can be defined is very large. New
services, however, SHOULD at least satisfy the following guidelines.
- The service has to be of general interest;
- It should not be specific to a particular country or region;
- The language in which the new service is defined MUST be English
(this is a protocol token, not meant to be shown to humans);
- The newly defined services SHOULD correspond to a standard
statistical classification of enterprises or services, such as the
North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
5. IANA Considerations
Registration template and URN scheme for emergency and non-emergency
services have been defined in [RFC5031] in Sections 3 and 4,
respectively.
5.1. Registering new tokens
This document creates new IANA registries for location-based services
as listed in Section 3, starting with
'urn:service:business.convention-center' and finishing with
'urn:service:transportation.tram-stop'.
Aside from the labels defined here, document
[draft-ietf-ecrit-service-urn-policy] defines the registration policy
for new service-identifying labels.
5.2. Internationalization Considerations
The service values listed in this document MUST NOT be presented to
the user. The values therefore have the characteristic of tokens or
tags and no internationalization support is required.
5.3. Security Considerations
This document defines a registry for location-based services and as
such does not raise security issues. The same security
considerations as in [RFC5031] apply.
