mpostelnicu/ocds_location_extension

Allows the point of delivery or site of works for a given line item to be indicated in tender, award and contract objects.

Location Data

Communicating the location of proposed or executed contract delivery is important to many users of contracting data.

This extension introduces two properties at the items level to describe location:

• deliveryAddress - a standard Address block which can be used to provide a postal address where services should be delivered.
• deliveryLocation - a new block consisting of GeoJSON and Gazetteer entries to describe a wider range of locations to which the contract line item relates.

The locationGazetteers.csv codelist's Category column indicates whether the gazetteer has identifiers for the whole world ('Universal') or only some subset ('National' or 'Sub-National').

Example

Below is an example of a geolocated item in the tender section:

{
  "tender": {
    "items": [
      {
        "id": "item1",
        "description": "Ceremonial Trumpets for Oxford Town Hall",
        "classification": {
          "description": "Trumpets",
          "scheme": "CPV",
          "id": "37312100",
          "uri": "http://purl.org/cpv/2008/code-37312100"
        },
        "deliveryLocation": {
          "geometry": {
            "type": "Point",
            "coordinates": [
              51.751944,
              -1.257778
            ]
          },
          "gazetteer": {
            "scheme": "GEONAMES",
            "identifiers": [
              "2640729"
            ]
          },
          "description": "Central Oxford",
          "uri": "http://www.geonames.org/2640729/oxford.html"
        },
        "deliveryAddress": {
          "postalCode": "OX1 1BX",
          "countryName": "United Kingdom",
          "streetAddress": "Town Hall, St Aldate's",
          "region": "Oxfordshire",
          "locality": "Oxford"
        },
        "unit": {
          "name": "Items",
          "value": {
            "currency": "GBP",
            "amount": 10000
          }
        },
        "quantity": 10
      }
    ]
  }
}

If the procurement related to the rebuilding of a road, then the item could also specify more complex geometries such as:

{
  "tender": {
    "items": [
      {
        "id": "item1",
        "deliveryLocation": {
          "geometry": {
            "type": "LineString",
            "coordinates": [
              [
                102,
                0
              ],
              [
                103,
                1
              ],
              [
                104,
                0
              ],
              [
                105,
                1
              ]
            ]
          },
          "gazetteer": {
            "scheme": "OSMW",
            "identifiers": [
              "27895985"
            ]
          },
          "description": "St Aldate's",
          "uri": "http://www.geonames.org/2640729/oxford.html"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

You can take the contents of the geometry object, excluding the geometry keyword, and plug this into any GeoJSON tool to see the shape that is described.
