Well, personally, I haven't seen something like the emergence of two "schools" - actually, my impression is that we are all still following our own "personal" school, when dealing with the use of SemWeb technologies in the geo domain (and I'm not saying that this is necessarily a bad thing). What I saw is an increasing amount of work on the use of LD as a way to bridge geo technologies with Web technologies, but, in my understanding, there's no homogeneity on how this is done. The approach used depends on the use case, and this can be seen just going through the presentations of the 2 LD sessions. Andrea
