Re: Property "geographic identifier" in LOCN

No. If you want that this URI to be interpreted as a URI and not as a 
literal, then the identifier property cannot be a owl:DatatypeProperty. 
It is an owl:ObjectProperty by definition. Since we want an 
unconstrained range, we are out of OWL anyway, so the property will just 
be a rdf:Property.

* What would be the owl class: locn:Location? locn:Geometry? Something else?
* Why would you like to make this property a key? This prevents to have 
two geographic identifiers for the same object which sorts of ruins the 
interoperability effort we are trying to achieve with this property.
I'm afraid I don't understand your proposal.
