Engineering and Research Issues
- Relationship XML to RDF
- Translate constraints (*), not just data models
- RDFization framework needed
- XML Schema annotations (GML, SMBMeta, Atom/RSS)
- GIS meets the Semantic Web
- Mixing GML data with "non-geographic" info
- Extending SPARQL language + systems for geo query
- Comparision of SPARQL with Web Feature Servers
- (*) New schema technology?
- No language for capturing cross-domain "application profiles"
- RDF query (SPARQL) closely related
- goal: improve application robustness and code portability
