A 'geo' URI is a URI scheme defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force's RFC 5870 (published 8 June 2010)^[1] as:

a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for geographic locations using the 'geo' scheme name. A 'geo' URI identifies a physical location in a two- or three-dimensional coordinate reference system in a compact, simple, human-readable, and protocol-independent way.^[1]

The current revision of the vCard specification^[2] supports 'geo' URIs in a vCard's "GEO" property, and the GeoSMS standard uses 'geo' URIs for geotagging SMS messages.

A 'geo' URI is not to be confused with the site GeoUrl^[3] (which implements ICBM address).

Example[link]

A simple 'geo' URI might look like:

geo:37.786971,-122.399677

where the two numerical values represent latitude and longitude respectively,^[1] and are separated by a comma.^[1] If a third comma-separated value is present, it represents altitude.^[1] The 'geo' URI also allows for an optional "uncertainty" value, separated by a semicolon, representing the uncertainty of the location in meters, and is described using the "u" URI parameter.^[1] A 'geo' URI with an uncertainty parameter looks as follows:

geo:37.786971,-122.399677;u=35

A 'geo' URI may, for example, be included on a web page, as HTML:

<a href="geo:37.786971,-122.399677;u=35">Wikimedia Headquarters</a>

so that a 'geo' URI-aware user agent such as a web browser could launch the user's chosen mapping service; or it could be used in an Atom feed or other XML file.

Coordinate reference systems[link]

The default coordinate reference system (CRS) used is the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS-84),^[1] for planet Earth although other CRS, once defined, may be specified, using the "crs" URI parameter,^[4] also separated by a semicolon. Such CRSs may include both other terrestrial systems and those for non-terrestrial coordinates such as those on the Moon or Mars.

A 'geo' URI for a hypothetical lunar CRS created in 2011 might be:

geo:37.786971,-122.399677;u=35;crs=Moon-2011

The order in which the semicolon-separated parameters occur is not significant,^[1] and 'crs' parameter values are case-insensitive,^[1] so the above example is exactly equivalent to:

geo:37.786971,-122.399677;crs=moon-2011;u=35
