&gt; is in the process of<br>
&gt; providing a search capability, via an ESIP interface (using the Open<br>
&gt; Search standard with Geo extension), by point and line.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The current implementation can be seen at<br>
&gt; _https://api.echo.nasa.gov/echo-esip/_<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The _http://www.georss.org/simple_specification (which I believe the<br>
&gt; geo<br>
&gt; extension is based on) provides this support and we would like to<br>
&gt; propose<br>
&gt; it's addition to the open search geo spec.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; For example,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Example URL templates:<br>
&gt; _<br>
&gt; __http://example.com/?q={searchTerms}&amp;pw={startPage?}&amp;line={geo:line?}&amp;format=rss_<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; Example requests:<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; I note that the section of the Geo extension on atom responses has
the<br>
&gt; element,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &lt;georss:line&gt;40.73763 -73.9972 40.73519 -73.99167 40.737015
-73.99035<br>
&gt; 40.73643 -73.98914 40.734640 -73.990431 40.731617 -73.991504&lt;/<br>
&gt; georss:line&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; we propose an additional element for point,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &lt;georss:point&gt;40.73763 -73.9972&lt;/georss:point&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Please let us know if this is proposal is acceptable.<br>

Hi Douglas,<br>
<br>
there is the OpenSearch Geo Draft 2 which might not be linked yet. Have
<br>
a look at the geoemtry parameter:<br>
</font></tt><a href=http://www.opensearch.org/Specifications/OpenSearch/Extensions/Geo/1.0/Draft_2#The_.22geometry.22_parameter><tt><font size=2>http://www.opensearch.org/Specifications/OpenSearch/Extensions/Geo/1.0/Draft_2#The_.22geometry.22_parameter</font></tt></a><tt><font size=2><br>
<br>
I think it does exactly what you are looking for.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
