Extending the GeoSPARQL ontology with raster data query capabilities

[FransKnibbe]

Contributed by Timo Homburg for the white paper "Benefits of Representing Spatial Data using Semantic and Graph Technologies":

If the GeoSPARQL ontology is able to support raster data, new query capabilities are needed in order to use raster data in daily applications. In particular the following query capabilities which are the norm in relational GIS databases should be adopted:

• Raster algebra operations
• Raster relation functions (ST_Within, ST_Covers...)
• Vectorization and Rasterization capabilities
• Raster modification capabilities (e.g. ST_AddBand)
