Abstract
The Edelman-Jamison problem is to characterize those abstract convex geometries that are representable by a set of points in the plane. We show that some natural modification of the Edelman-Jamison problem is equivalent to the well known NP-hard order type problem. The relation to the realizability of oriented matroids is clarified.
