Many workloads have limitations on what geography they are allowed to operate in. This is often due to a regulation that requires that the computation occur in a particular jurisdiction. There are many mechanisms by which Evidence of location may be created and then evaluated by a Verifier. No matter which mechanism is appropriate for a given situation, the result of the Verification can be expressed in a similiarly defined EAT Attestation Result. This document is therefore about encoding a variety of geographical conclusions in an Attestation Result. In addition, one mechanism of directly creating a geographic result in the form of an Endorsement is described in an appendix.
