Re: [sdw] W3C LBD reach out - 2D and 3D CAD geometry for building projects (#1143)

Yes I agree with that.

@mathib over in the [ESIP Semantic Technologies community](http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Semantic_Technologies) we have been developing and are the stewards of the [Semantic Web for Earth and Environment Terminology](https://github.com/ESIPFed/sweet/) (SWEET) ontology suite which does contain relevant resources worth mentioning here, specifically (but not limited to)
* [Representation Space Geometry](https://github.com/ESIPFed/sweet/blob/4a5378cb048b6f493cfe57fdb85cf4c90f30baa4/src/reprSpaceGeometry.ttl)
* [Representation Space Geometry 3D](https://github.com/ESIPFed/sweet/blob/4a5378cb048b6f493cfe57fdb85cf4c90f30baa4/src/reprSpaceGeometry3D.ttl)

N.B. both of the above resources (like all SWEET resources) are served as linked data via the http://sweetontology.net/ URI e.g. http://sweetontology.net/reprSpaceGeometry. Content negotiation is also available via usual means.

The reason I mention there is is NOT to say that everyone should use them, but it is to say that these representation constructs in SWEET _could_ be used as the framework from which the LBD effort builds out relevant implementations specific to your use cases e.g. 

> ...RDF-based description of geometry, e.g. in a context of parametric geometry where the parametrics have to be accessible as Linked Data

I was discussing some related issues with @pipauwel and am somewhat aware of the work going on over at LBD group. This is a really interesting effort.
