h1. Overview

*_GeoSPARQL_* is a standard for representation and querying of geospatial linked data for the Semantic Web from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC).The standard provides:
* a small topological ontology in RDFS/OWL for representation using [Geography Markup Language (GML) | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geography_Markup_Language] and [Well-Known Text (WKT) | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-known_text] literals
* Simple Features, RCC8, and DE-9IM (a.k.a. Egenhofer) topological relationship vocabularies and ontologies for qualitative reasoning
* a SPARQL query interface using a set of topological SPARQL extension functions for quantitative reasoning
