Few applications will require the full range of capabilities described by this conceptual schema.
The basic Engineering Viewpoint assumption is that the services described in this International Standard will be made available on the web to be accessed by mobile devices, whose web connection may be transient, in a manner similar to permanently on-web clients. The exception is that the mobile client can either update or request an update of its own geographic location at one or more times during the process of the service interaction. There are no specific requirements on the network platform, and the interface and data definitions in this International Standard are platform neutral.
