ASNs and BGP announcements do not come into play.
If a /16 inetnum has a geofeed link, the pointed file can specify 
entries covering the /16. If a /24 inetnum with geofeed link exists, 
this takes priority for that /24 portion. RPKI signature (optional) can 
be used -after- the inetnum hierarchy is resolved to verify ownership of 
the prefix.
