Perhaps "Float" would be a better name for this proposed type

Hi Dave, first thanks for the comments!

About Float, yes, I thought about that. But here this type is only meant to hold the lenght/distance, not the result of a very complicated calculation, so thats why I took Decimal. Should I change that into Float?


A decimal is a non-empty sequence of ASCII decimal digits that may include an ASCII period (".") to indicate the decimal point. It represents a rational number in base-10 and can have any number of digits after the decimal point. Leading zeros have no semantic meaning and should be omitted unless immediately preceding the decimal point.

```abnf
Decimal = 1*DIGIT [ "." 1*DIGIT ]
```

Negative Decimal numbers are not supported by this specification.

The URI for the `Decimal` data type is `xsd:decimal`.
