Hi George,

EAD 2002 can support geocoding of a sort.  In our finding aids, we use
"geonames" as a source and the Geonames ID as an "authfilenumber" in the
geogname element.  This allows us to link to cities, regions, or countries
defined by Geonames, and we can extract latitude and longitude directly
from it.  It appears that EAD 3 will support latitude and longitude
explicitly entered into attributes in the placeentry element, as well as
@vocabularysource for the full URI.  I am not sure the relation of geogname
to placeentry in the new schema.  Someone from the committee will have to
chime in.

Ethan
