1. Introduction 1. Introduction
We anticipate that the network, through configuration or management Many mobile devices are now equipped to determine the user's
protocols, tells a mobile device what kind of location it finds geographic location, either through GPS, cell-tower mapping or a
itself in and what kind of services are available "close by" that network-based triangulation mechanism. Once location information is

query the system for the closest Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) or provide a specific service, sometimes called points-of-interest
gas station. (POI). Examples of such services include restaurants, stores,
hospitals, automatic teller machines and museums.
The number of descriptive terms for possible services is almost
unbounded. This registry tries to identify common terms that are
likely to be useful for communications devices. The terms roughly
correspond to the level of details of location descriptions and icons
found on geographic maps, for example, and are meant to be in common
use across a variety of cultures and countries.
In many cases, a service might be described by multiple terms that To allow such systems to operate across large geographic areas and
apply at the same time. For example, the combination of "restaurant" for multiple languages, it is useful to define a common set of terms,
and "airport" is immediately recognizable. This registry makes no so that the same service is labeled with the same token regardless of
attempt to limit the number of terms that can be used to describe a who created a particular location service. The number of different

This registry can be used as a list of tokens, to be referenced by
appropriate protocols that accept textual tokens.
[SCHEMA TO BE DEFINED.]
6. IANA Considerations Registration template and URN scheme for emergency and non-emergency
services have been defined in [RFC5031] in Sections 3 and 4,
respectively.
6.1. Registering tokens 5.1. Registering new tokens
This document creates new IANA registries for location-based services This document creates new IANA registries for location-based services
as listed in Section 3, starting with as listed in Section 3, starting with
'urn:service:business.convention-center' and finishing with 'urn:service:business.convention-center' and finishing with
'urn:service:travel.motel'. 'urn:service:transportation.train-station'.
IANA will maintain this registry both in the form of an XML schema
and a list of tokens, with the same content.
Following the policies outline in [RFC2434], new tokens are assigned
after Expert Review. The Expert Reviewer will generally consult the
IETF GEOPRIV working group mailing list or its designated successor.
Updates or deletions of tokens from the registration follow the same
procedures.
The expert review should be guided by a few common sense
considerations. For example, tokens should be well- defined and
widely recognized. The expert's support of IANA will include
providing IANA with the new token(s) when the update is provided only
in the form of a schema, and providing IANA with the new schema
element(s) when the update is provided only in the form of a token.
Each registration must include the name of the token. For the most
appropriate terminology in defining token names for new services, the
official UN classification [ISICrev3] must be consulted first. If no
entry is present for the new service in the UN classification, then a
new term can be defined.
To ensure widespread usability across protocols, tokens MUST follow
the character set restrictions for XML Names [XML].
6.2. URN Sub-Namespace Registration for
