Ideally, such a form would be returned on a GET to\nhttp:\/\/api.local.yahoo.com\/MapsService\/V1\/geocoding<\/a>\nwhen application\/rdf+xml is declared in the Accept header as the\npreferred representation format.<\/p>\n\n
I grounded most of the parameters in\nWikipedia URI space<\/a>,\nbut Yahoo might want\nto be more precise and define their own terms where Wikipedia isn’t suitable.\nAlso, Wikipedia doesn’t yet do RDF, so you can’t get any of the\n(eventual) goodness that comes from\nWebClosure<\/a>.  Of course,\nthe form is useful without that.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The new Yahoo Maps API described with RDF Forms; <rf:Indexable xmlns:rf=”http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/2003\/rdfforms\/” xmlns:rdf=”http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/02\/22-rdf-syntax-ns#” rdf:about=”http:\/\/api.local.yahoo.com\/MapsService\/V1\/geocode”> <rf:indexedBy> <rf:IndexParam rf:shortName=”appid”> <rdf:predicate rdf:resource=”http:\/\/developer.yahoo.net\/faq\/index.html#appid”\/> <\/rf:IndexParam> <\/rf:indexedBy> <rf:indexedBy> <rf:IndexParam rf:shortName=”street”> <rdf:predicate rdf:resource=”http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Street”\/> <\/rf:IndexParam> <\/rf:indexedBy> <rf:indexedBy> <rf:IndexParam rf:shortName=”city”> <rdf:predicate rdf:resource=”http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/City”\/> <\/rf:IndexParam> <\/rf:indexedBy> <rf:indexedBy> <rf:IndexParam rf:shortName=”state”> <rdf:predicate rdf:resource=”http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/State_codes”\/> <\/rf:IndexParam> <\/rf:indexedBy> <rf:indexedBy> <rf:IndexParam rf:shortName=”zip”> <rdf:predicate rdf:resource=”http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/ZIP_Code”\/> <\/rf:IndexParam> <\/rf:indexedBy> <rf:indexedBy> <rf:IndexParam rf:shortName=”location”> <rdf:predicate rdf:resource=”http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Location_%28geography%29″\/> <\/rf:IndexParam> <\/rf:indexedBy> […]","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[40],"class_list":["post-1121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-xml"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1121","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1121"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1121\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1121"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1121"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.markbaker.ca\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1121"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
