The Location-to-Service Translation (LoST) protocol is an XML-based
protocol for mapping service identifiers and geodetic or civic
location information to service URIs and service boundaries. In
particular, it can be used to determine the location-appropriate
Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for emergency services.
The main data structure, the XML <mapping> element, used for
encapsulating information about service boundaries is defined in the
LoST protocol specification and circumscribes the region within which
all locations map to the same service URI or set of URIs for a given
service.
This document defines an XML protocol to exchange these mappings
between two nodes. As motived in the Location-to-URL Mapping
Architecture document this mechanism is useful for the
synchronization of top-level LoST Forest Guides. This document is,
however, even useful in a deployment that does not make use of the
LoST protocol but purely wants to distribute service boundaries.
