Re: Agenda for Best Practice sub-group, 14:00UTC 1-June-2016

Dear Linda, dear Frans, dear Josh,

About the agenda item on "spatial ontology", I wonder whether we can 
include here a clarification on the notions of spatial object, feature 
and geometry in GeoSPARQL - in relation to ISO, and to our discussion on 
real-world / spatial things.

In particular:

1. In GeoSPARQL, feature and geometry are explicitly mapped to the 
corresponding notions in the relevant ISO standards. However, the 
definition of spatial object in GeoSPARQL doesn't seem to match to the 
ISO one ("object used for representing a spatial characteristic of a 
feature" - ISO 19107).

2. What in GeoSPARQL corresponds to real-world / spatial things?

Thanks

Andrea
