Andy Armstrong of hexten has created yet another implementation of the “geo” URI scheme – this time it’s CPAN module for all the Perl fans out there: URI::geo provides a class to create and parse “geo” URIs from within Perl scripts – a simple example to create a URI from latitude and longitude information looks like this:
use URI::geo;
my $guri = URI::geo->new( { lat => 55, lon => -1 } );
The current module version 0.0.4 is available from CPAN here, API documentation can be found here.
Andy, thanks for implementing and getting the module into CPAN!
