<remark><p>Allowed empty geoloc element to signify a pause in publishing; added &lt;accuracy/&gt; element and deprecated &lt;error/&gt; element to change horizontal GPS error from arc minutes to meters, consistent with IMPS and other formats.</p></remark>

<p>Avoid "Mars probe" issues: as specified in Table 1, the units for &lt;lat/&gt; and &lt;lon/&gt; MUST be decimal degrees (where South and West are negative, North and East are positive), the units for &lt;alt/&gt; MUST be meters above or below sea level, and the units for &lt;error/&gt; MUST be arc minutes.</p>

<p>In applications where updates are sent whenever there is a certain distance change in location, those applications SHOULD account for time as well, to avoid rate-limiting when the user is (for example) on a jet plane. One possible way to do this would be to send updates at most once per minute of time (every time 60 seconds have elapsed).</p>
<p>Inferences SHOULD NOT be made about accuracy from the number of digits specified in the location or altitude.</p>
<p>Why the datum madness? See &lt;<link url='http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/gps_datum.html'>http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/gps_datum.html</link>&gt; for an example.</p>
