| Declaration |
element geo { att.global.attributes, text } |
| Note | All uses of geo within a document are required to use
the same coordinate system, which is that defined by a
geoDecl element supplied in the TEI Header. If no such
element is supplied, the assumption is that the content of each
geo element will be a pair of numbers to be interpreted
as latitude followed by longitude according to the World Geodetic
System. |
