In 2012 the Open Geospatial Consortium published GeoSPARQL defining "SPARQL extension functions", "RIF rules", "and RDF/OWL ontology for [spatial] information" and supporting vocabularies.

In the 8+ years since its publication, GeoSPARQL has become the most important spatial Semantic Web standard, as judged by references to it in other Semantic Web standards and its wide use in Semantic Web data. An update to the standard was proposed in 2019 to deliver GeoSPARQL 1.1 in 2021 with a charter to: handle outstanding change requests and source new ones from the user community and to "better present" the standard, that is to better link all the standard’s parts and better document & exemplify elements. Expected updates included alignments to other ontologies, handling of new spatial referencing systems, new geometry representations, and new artifact presentation. In this paper, we will discuss the submitted change requests and resulting updates to the standard. We will also discuss the theory behind updates and our expectations for GeoSPARQL 1.1's use.» weiterlesen» einklappen
