Section 7.2 says:
Format Definition: This component is defined by the following notation: locationc = "BEGIN" ":" "VLOCATION" CRLF locprop "END" ":" "VLOCATION" CRLF locprop = *( ; ; The following are REQUIRED ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; uid / ; ; The following are OPTIONAL ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; description / geo / loctype / name ; ; The following are OPTIONAL ; and MAY occur more than once. ; sdataprop / iana-prop )
It should say:
Format Definition: This component is defined by the following notation: locationc = "BEGIN" ":" "VLOCATION" CRLF locprop "END" ":" "VLOCATION" CRLF locprop = *( ; ; The following are REQUIRED ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; uid / ; ; The following are OPTIONAL ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; description / geo / loctype / name / url / ; ; The following are OPTIONAL ; and MAY occur more than once. ; sdataprop / iana-prop )
Notes:
The url property is missing or the specification clahes with RFC 9074, where in section 8.2 in the example it reads:
BEGIN:VLOCATION
UID:123456-abcdef-98765432
NAME:Office
URL:geo:40.443,-79.945;u=10
END:VLOCATION
Either "geo" was intended as a geo uri as defined in RFC 5870 (instead of the geographic position from RFC 2445/5545) or "url" should be added as a valid property (or RFC 9074 is wrong).

Verifier's notes: A "/" was missing after "name" and was added after "url" in this same errata.
