[locn:geometry](https://www.w3.org/ns/locn#locn:geometry) would be a property of a dcterms:Location, as in the examples: [GeoDCAT-AP page 57](https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/sites/default/files/distribution/2016-08/geodcat-ap_v1.0.1.pdf#page=57) or the SDW-BP [example 15](https://www.w3.org/TR/sdw-bp/#ex-geodcat-ap-bag-addresses). Something like:
```
[] a dcat:Dataset;
dcterms:spatial [
a dcterms:Location;
locn:geometry "POINT(4.7173 50.8643)"^^geosparql:wktLiteral ] .
```
As @nicholascar suggests, this can indeed also be done directly using [geosparql:hasGeometry](http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/geosparql). GeoSparql provides a normative way of representing geometries expressed as WKT or GML, although it leaves other serializations such as GeoJSON to future work.
```
[] a dcat:Dataset;
dcterms:spatial [
a dcterms:Location;
geosparql:hasGeometry [
a geosparql:Geometry ;
geosparql:asWKT "POINT(137.8563726 -33.7108293)"^^geosparql:wktLiteral ]
] .
```
