<p>Location information SHOULD be communicated and transported by means of the &xep0060; subset specified in &xep0163;. Because location information is not pure presence information and can change independently of the user's availability, it SHOULD NOT be provided as an extension to &PRESENCE;.</p>
<section1 topic='Transport' anchor='transport'>
<p>Location information SHOULD be communicated and transported by means of &xep0060; or the subset thereof specified in &xep0163; (the examples below assume that the user's XMPP server supports PEP, thus the publish request lacks a 'to' address and the notification message has a 'from' address of the user's bare JID).</p>

<section2 topic='Entity requests the location of another entity' anchor='usecases-request'>
<p>If an entity wishes to request the location of another entity but the requestee does not publish that information via pubsub (including PEP), the requestor MAY send an IQ to the requestee:</p>
<example caption='Location request'><![CDATA[
<iq type='get'
id='loc_1'
from='juliet@capulet.com/balcony'
to='romeo@montague.net/garden'>
<geoloc xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc'/>
</iq>]]></example>
<p>The receiving entity SHOULD make a careful access control decision before returning the actual location.</p>
<example caption='Successful location response'><![CDATA[
<iq type='result'
id='loc_1'
to='juliet@capulet.com/balcony'
from='romeo@montague.net/garden'>

<country>Italy</country>
<lat>45.44</lat>
<locality>Venice</locality>
<lon>12.33</lon>
</geoloc>
</iq>]]></example>
<p>If the receiving entity decides not to return the actual location, it MUST return an IQ error, which SHOULD be &forbidden; but MAY be some other appropriate error, such as &notallowed;:</p>
<example caption='Access to location information denied'><![CDATA[
<iq type='error'

<section2 topic='Sending location' anchor='usecases-send'>
<p>If an entity wants to send another entity its postition but it does not publish that information via pubsub, it MAY do so in a message. The message SHOULD NOT include an XMPP body element.</p>

<section2 topic='Entity publishes location in presence' anchor='usecases-presence'>
<p>If an entity has generated or been issued a random resource identifier but it wishes to inform all of the entities on its roster about its location, the entity MAY publish a presence stanza that includes a location. It is RECOMMENDED to include only the &lt;description/&gt; element, since full locations SHOULD be published using PEP in order to save bandwidth and ensure appropriate access control.</p>
