ISBN978-1-4493-5974-4. «Geojson: A Trobled Type (...) a standard based on JSON, designed for representing geographic features like points on a map. (...) There's another problem with GeoJSON: It has no registered media type. A GeoJSON document is served as application/json, just like any other JSON document. How is a client supposed to distinguish between geoJSON and plain old JSON?»
