First question ... it mentions ISO 19109, "NeoGeo (proposed) consists of a root property _featureproperty which takes as its domain any OWL/RDF class that it makes sense (after ISO 19109) to cast as a geographic feature." Is ISO 19109 freely available? If not, could someone summarise? The W3C "basic geo" vocab defined a class "spatial thing", which seems to be in a similar role. But we didn't go into much detail about what we considered that to exactly amount to. Could the domain of "featureproperty" be basicgeo:SpatialThing, for example? I can't currently get to http://mapbureau.com/neogeo/neogeo.owl and the host doesn't seem to respond to pings. cheers, Dan Dan
