GeoCircle

A GeoCircle is a GeoShape representing a circular geographic area. As it is a GeoShape it provides the simple textual property 'circle', but also allows the combination of postalCode alongside geoRadius. The center of the circle can be indicated via the 'geoMidpoint' property, or more approximately using 'address', 'postalCode'.

Properties

| Property | Expected Type | Description | |----------|---------------|-------------| | geoMidpoint | GeoCoordinates | Indicates the GeoCoordinates at the centre of a GeoShape, e.g. GeoCircle. | | geoRadius | Number or Distance or Text | Indicates the approximate radius of a GeoCircle (metres unless indicated otherwise via Distance notation). |

Properties from GeoShape

| Property | Expected Type | Description | |----------|---------------|-------------| | polygon | Text | A polygon is the area enclosed by a point-to-point path for which the starting and ending points are the same. A polygon is expressed as a series of four or more space delimited points where the first and final points are identical. | | circle | Text | A circle is the circular region of a specified radius centered at a specified latitude and longitude. A circle is expressed as a pair followed by a radius in meters. | | postalCode | Text | The postal code. For example, 94043. | | addressCountry | Text or Country | The country. Recommended to be in 2-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 format, for example "US". For backward compatibility, a 3-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code such as "SGP" or a full country name such as "Singapore" can also be used. | | box | Text | A box is the area enclosed by the rectangle formed by two points. The first point is the lower corner, the second point is the upper corner. A box is expressed as two points separated by a space character. | | line | Text | A line is a point-to-point path consisting of two or more points. A line is expressed as a series of two or more point objects separated by space. | | elevation | Text or Number | The elevation of a location (WGS 84). Values may be of the form 'NUMBER UNIT_OF_MEASUREMENT' (e.g., '1,000 m', '3,200 ft') while numbers alone should be assumed to be a value in meters. | | address | Text or PostalAddress | Physical address of the item. |

Properties from Thing

| Property | Expected Type | Description | |----------|---------------|-------------| | digital | Number | A number from 0.0 to 1.0 representing the degree of digital vs physical embodiment. 1.0 = fully digital, 0.0 = fully physical, 0.5 = hybrid. | | disambiguatingDescription | Text | A sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation. | | potentialAction | Action | Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role. | | additionalType | Text or URL | An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide. | | identifier | URL or Text or PropertyValue | The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of [[Thing]], such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See background notes for more details. | | image | ImageObject or URL | An image of the item. This can be a [[URL]] or a fully described [[ImageObject]]. | | sameAs | URL | URL of a reference Web page that unambiguously indicates the item's identity. E.g. the URL of the item's Wikipedia page, Wikidata entry, or official website. | | description | Text or TextObject | A description of the item. | | alternateName | Text | An alias for the item. | | url | URL | URL of the item. | | subjectOf | Event or CreativeWork | A CreativeWork or Event about this Thing. | | name | Text | The name of the item. | | mainEntityOfPage | CreativeWork or URL | Indicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described. See background notes for details. |
