Geolocating and Georeferencing with IIIF

[thehabes]

As more use cases and technologies comes from the Maps sector, the more it needs to be categorized through the IIIF stack.

The Maps community has identified the potential for a new IIIF guide. With the advent of the navPlace Extension and Georeference Extension there are multiple paths to take for various mapping use cases, some of which are not obvious for how to start.

Recipes have been or will be created for the "how to technically" do these things (https://iiif.io/guides/guides/navplace/). However, a guide to get started and pick your arch through the technologies has not been created.

The IIIF Maps groups propose some kind of "Mapping in IIIF" guide to discuss when to use Geolocating Annotation, when to use Georeference Annotations, and when to use navPlace.
