RFC 4119
Abstract
This document defines an XML format for the representation of civic location. This format is designed for use with Presence Information Data Format Location Object (PIDF-LO) documents and replaces the civic location format in RFC 4119. The format is based on the civic address definition in PIDF-LO, but adds several new elements based on the civic types defined for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), and adds a hierarchy to address complex road identity schemes. The format also includes support for the xml:lang language tag and restricts the types of elements where appropriate. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
Since the publication of the original PIDF-LO civic specification, in
[<a href="./rfc4119" title=""A Presence-based GEOPRIV Location Object Format"">RFC4119</a>], it has been found that the specification is lacking a
number of additional parameters that can be used to more precisely
specify a civic location. These additional parameters have been
largely captured in [<a href="./rfc4776" title=""Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6) Option for Civic Addresses Configuration Information"">RFC4776</a>].
This document revises the GEOPRIV civic form to include the
additional civic parameters captured in [<a href="./rfc4776" title=""Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6) Option for Civic Addresses Configuration Information"">RFC4776</a>]. The document also
introduces a hierarchical structure for thoroughfare (road)
identification, which is employed in some countries. New elements
are defined to allow for even more precision in specifying a civic
location.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>. Terminology</span>
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [<a href="./rfc2119" title=""Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels"">RFC2119</a>].
The term "thoroughfare" is used in this document to describe a road
or part of a road or other access route along which a final point is
identified. This is consistent with the definition used in
[<a href="#ref-UPU-S42" title=""International Postal Address Components and Templates"">UPU-S42</a>].
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. Changes from PIDF-LO</span>
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1" href="#section-3.1">3.1</a>. Additional Civic Address Types</span>
[<a id="ref-RFC4776">RFC4776</a>] provides a full set of parameters that may be used to
describe a civic location. Specifically, [<a href="./rfc4776" title=""Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6) Option for Civic Addresses Configuration Information"">RFC4776</a>] lists several
civic address types (CAtypes) that require support in the formal
PIDF-LO definition that are not in [<a href="./rfc4119" title=""A Presence-based GEOPRIV Location Object Format"">RFC4119</a>].
These changes include new elements that are required to support more
complex structures for naming street addresses. This is described in
more detail in <a href="#section-3.2">Section 3.2</a>.

Table 1: New Civic PIDF-LO Types
A complete description of these types is included in [<a href="./rfc4776" title=""Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6) Option for Civic Addresses Configuration Information"">RFC4776</a>].
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.2" href="#section-3.2">3.2</a>. New Thoroughfare Elements</span>
In some countries, a thoroughfare can be broken up into sections, and
it is not uncommon for street numbers to be repeated between
sections. A road section identifier is required to ensure that an
address is unique. For example, "West Alice Parade" in the figure
below has 5 sections, each numbered from 1; unless the section is
specified, "7 West Alice Parade" could exist in 5 different places.
The "RDSEC" element is used to specify the section.
<span class="grey">Thomson & Winterbottom Standards Track [Page 4]</span><span id="page-5" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc5139">RFC 5139</a> Revised Civic LO February 2008</span>
Minor streets can share the same name, so that they can only be
distinguished by the major thoroughfare with which they intersect.
For example, both "West Alice Parade, <a href="#section-3">Section 3</a>" and "Bob Street"
could both be intersected by a "Carol Lane". The "RDBR" element is
used to specify a road branch where the name of the branch does not
uniquely identify the road. Road branches MAY also be used where a
major thoroughfare is split into sections.
Similar to the way that a road branch is associated with a road, a
road sub-branch is associated with a road branch. The "RDSUBBR"
element is used to identify road sub-branches.
The "A6" element is retained for use in those countries that require
this level of detail. Where "A6" was previously used for street
names in [<a href="./rfc4119" title=""A Presence-based GEOPRIV Location Object Format"">RFC4119</a>], it MUST NOT be used; the "RD" element MUST be
used for thoroughfare data.
The following figure shows a fictional arrangement of roads where
these new thoroughfare elements are applicable.

<span class="h4"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.2.1" href="#section-3.2.1">3.2.1</a>. Street Numbering</span>
The introduction of new thoroughfare elements affects the
interpretation of several aspects of more specific civic address
data. In particular, street numbering (the "HNO" element) applies to
the most specific road element specified, that is, the first
specified element from "RDSUBBR", "RDBR", "RDSEC", or "RD".
<span class="h4"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.2.2" href="#section-3.2.2">3.2.2</a>. Directionals and Other Qualifiers</span>
The "PRM", "POM", "PRD", "POD", and "STS" elements always apply to
the value of the "RD" element only. If road branches or sub-branches
require street suffixes or qualifiers, they MUST be included in the
"RDBR" or "RDSUBBR" element text.
<span class="grey">Thomson & Winterbottom Standards Track [Page 5]</span><span id="page-6" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc5139">RFC 5139</a> Revised Civic LO February 2008</span>
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.3" href="#section-3.3">3.3</a>. Country Element</span>
The "country" element differs from that defined in [<a href="./rfc4119" title=""A Presence-based GEOPRIV Location Object Format"">RFC4119</a>] in that
it now restricts the value space of the element to two uppercase
characters, which correspond to the alpha-2 codes in [<a href="#ref-ISO.3166-1" title=""Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions - Part 1: Country codes"">ISO.3166-1</a>].
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.4" href="#section-3.4">3.4</a>. A1 Element</span>
The "A1" element is used for the top-level subdivision within a
country. In the absence of a country-specific guide on how to use
the A-series of elements, the second part of the ISO 3166-2 code
[<a href="#ref-ISO.3166-2" title=""Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions - Part 2: Country subdivision code"">ISO.3166-2</a>] for a country subdivision SHOULD be used. The ISO
3166-2 code is formed of a country code and hyphen plus a code of
one, two, or three characters or numerals. For the "A1" element, the
leading country code and hyphen are omitted and only the subdivision
code is included.
For example, the codes for Canada include CA-BC, CA-ON, CA-QC;
Luxembourg has just three single-character codes, LU-D, LU-G, and
LU-L; Australia uses both two- and three-character codes, AU-ACT,
AU-NSW, AU-NT; and France uses numerical codes for mainland France
and letters for territories, FR-75, FR-NC. This results in the
following fragments:
<country>CA</country><A1>ON</A1>
<country>LU</country><A1>L</A1>
<country>AU</country><A1>ACT</A1>
<country>FR</country><A1>75</A1>
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.5" href="#section-3.5">3.5</a>. Languages and Scripts</span>
The XML schema defined for civic addresses allows for the addition of
the "xml:lang" attribute to all elements except "country" and "PLC",
which both contain language-neutral values. The range of allowed
values for "country" is defined in [<a href="#ref-ISO.3166-1" title=""Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions - Part 1: Country codes"">ISO.3166-1</a>]; the range of allowed
values for "PLC" is described in the IANA registry defined by
[<a href="./rfc4589" title=""Location Types Registry"">RFC4589</a>].
The "script" field defined in [<a href="./rfc4776" title=""Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6) Option for Civic Addresses Configuration Information"">RFC4776</a>] is omitted in favor of using
the "xml:lang" attribute with a script subtag [<a href="./rfc4646" title=""Tags for Identifying Languages"">RFC4646</a>].
It is RECOMMENDED that each "civicAddress" element use one language
only, or a combination of languages that is consistent. Where a
civic location is represented in multiple languages, multiple
"civicAddress" elements SHOULD be included in the PIDF-LO document.
<span class="grey">Thomson & Winterbottom Standards Track [Page 6]</span><span id="page-7" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc5139">RFC 5139</a> Revised Civic LO February 2008</span>
For civic addresses that form a complex to describe the same
location, these SHOULD be inserted into the same tuple.
<span class="h4"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.5.1" href="#section-3.5.1">3.5.1</a>. Converting from the DHCP Format</span>
The DHCP format for civic addresses [<a href="./rfc4776" title=""Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6) Option for Civic Addresses Configuration Information"">RFC4776</a>] permits the inclusion
of an element multiple times with different languages or scripts.
However, this XML form only permits a single instance of each
element. Multiple "civicAddress" elements are required if any
element is duplicated with different languages. If the same language
and script are used for all elements, or no elements are duplicated,
the format can be converted into a single civic address.
Where there are duplicated elements in different languages, a
"civicAddress" element is created for each language that is present.
All elements that are in that language are included. Elements that
are language independent, like the "country" and "PLC" elements, are
added to all "civicAddress" elements.
<span class="h4"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.5.2" href="#section-3.5.2">3.5.2</a>. Combining Multiple Elements Based on Language Preferences</span>
If the receiver of the XML representation is known, and that receiver
has indicated language preferences, a single XML format can be
constructed using those preferences. For example, language
preferences can be indicated by the "Accept-Language" header in the
SIP or HTTP protocols.
All elements that have only one value, irrespective of language, are
used. Where multiple values exist, each value is assigned a
weighting based on the language preferences. The value with the
highest weighting is selected. An arbitrary value is selected if two
values have the same preference, if there is no preference for the
available languages, or if there are conflicting values with the same
language.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.6" href="#section-3.6">3.6</a>. Whitespace</span>
The XML schema [<a href="#ref-W3C.REC-xmlschema-2-20041028">W3C.REC-xmlschema-2-20041028</a>] defined in <a href="#section-4">Section 4</a>
uses a base type of "token" instead of "string" as used in [<a href="./rfc4119" title=""A Presence-based GEOPRIV Location Object Format"">RFC4119</a>].
<span class="grey">Thomson & Winterbottom Standards Track [Page 7]</span><span id="page-8" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc5139">RFC 5139</a> Revised Civic LO February 2008</span>
The "token" type ensures that whitespace within instance documents is
normalized and collapsed before being passed to a processor. This
ensures that the following fragments are considered equivalent by XML
processors:
<A4>North Wollongong</A4>
<A1>North
Wollongong</A1>
<A1>
North Wollongong
</A1>
Whitespace may still be included in values by using character
references, such as " ".

The authors would like to thank Henning Schulzrinne for his
assistance in defining the additional civic address types,
particularly his research into different addressing schemes that led
to the introduction of the thoroughfare elements. Rohan Mahy
suggested the ISO 3166-2 recommendation for A1. In addition, we
would like to thank Jon Peterson for his work in defining the
PIDF-LO.
