> GeoJSON section 2.1.8 states:
>   A GeoJSON object with type "GeometryCollection" is a geometry object which represents a collection of geometry objects.
>   A geometry collection must have a member with the name "geometries". The value corresponding to "geometries" is an array. Each element in this array is a GeoJSON geometry object.
>   
> Can we assume that for OData, a GeographyCollection contains a member with the name "geographies", as opposed to "geometries", and that the "type" will be "GeographyCollection" rather than "GeometryCollection"?
> Or do we assume that the "geometry" naming is used in the GeoJSON format, even for "geography" types?
