Network Architecture

1.DLR Smart Contracts
The DLR (Digital Land Registry) functions similar to the DNS of the World Wide Web. It creates an authoritative geographic namespace covering the globe that's divided into unique digital land parcels. Publishers link digital content to land parcels (think of them like 3D webpages). Browsers resolve linked content by mapping user geolocation to a digital land parcel.
2.SALSA Smart Contract
Digital land is administered through a Self-Assessed Licenses Sold via Auction (SALSA) system. Those that control digital land pay a fee to the network based on their self-assessed value of the land. Any market participant can obtain a digital land license by paying the self-assessed value to the current licensee. This system encourages productive usage of land and punishes squatters.
3.Geo Web Cadastre
The Cadastre is the user interface for the DLR—enabling digital land claims, transfers, fee payments, and changes to linked content. This map-based interface can also be used to explore Geo Web content and experiences.
4.Geo Web Browsers
Just like a traditional web browser, Geo Web browsers offer a universal interface for an unlimited variety of experiences. They use GPS or another suitable geolocation system to navigate the network instead of a URLs. Geo Web browsers can be canvas-based (smartphones & watches) or field-of-view (smartphone camera & glasses).
5.Content Networks
Geo Web publishers can link content via client-server or peer-to-peer content networks. Utilizing P2P architectures is especially attractive on the Geo Web because browsers seeking the same content will be geographically clustered—increasing network resiliency, efficiency, and censorship resistance.
Calling All Builders
Use Cases

Restaurants
COVID-19 introduced the bane of QR code menus. Open a Geo Web browser at a restaurant and the menu can already be there along with functionality like contactless ordering and live seating wait times.
Events
We love concerts and sporting events because of the power of shared experience. With the Geo Web, stadiums and arenas can extend this into a new digital dimension.
Tourism & Museums
Augment your favorite attractions with additional educational information, media, and interactions.
Digital Art
Place digital art (non-fungible or otherwise) in your backyard or a public space for all Geo Web browsers to discover and enjoy together.
Games
Create scavenger hunts and gamified check-ins that co-exist with the rest of the Geo Web network rather than in a siloed app.
Real Estate Marketing
Digital land is a valuable complement to any residential or commercial property. Real estate brokers can differentiate their service by ensuring clients claim their space on the Geo Web.
