Description
OGC has a policy for re-usable "building blocks" at various levels of granularity to improve interoperability.
@chris-little and @jonblower agreed that a first proposal would be to register the parameter object in the OGC register of building blocks.
The building blocks are organised in these folders:
• geo: geospatial building blocks
• ogc-utils: Utility building blocks that are used in OGC API's but are not inherently geospatial. They were created to ensure consistency within OGC API's where there was not a clear mainstream standard, and in line with best practices of the web and could be replaced, e.g. by building blocks specified in an IETF RFC or similar, if and when available. API's built with the geo building blocks do not need to use these, but they provide a nice default option that OGC-focused tools will understand.
• unstable: These building blocks are not yet stable or mature. They may be extracted from core OGC API standards that have not yet been fully approved, or they may also be new ideas that are not yet in a standard.
Each building block is an AsciiDoc document, whose name follows the convention: PREFIX-NAME.adoc. The prefix is parameter, in the case of parameters, header in the case of headers, and encoding (e.g.: JSON) in the case of data types or resources. This is an example of a building block
In addition, please register the building block in the register.json

First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Read the linked OGC building-block register example and register.json in the opengeospatial/bblocks repository first. Then identify CoverageJSON fragments that fit the stated building-block categories and document a concrete proposal. Done means the proposal is recorded and, if accepted, submitted as a pull request with the required registration entry.
