Semantic Web Dog Food

Presented at: Terra Cognita (Terra2009)

by Willem Robert van Hage, Jan Wielemaker, Guus Schreiber

Interpretation of spatial features often requires combined reasoning over geometry and semantics. We introduce the Space package, an open source SWI-Prolog extension that provides spatial indexing capabilities. Together with the existing semantic web reasoning capabilities of SWI-Prolog, this allows efficient integration of spatial and semantic queries and provides an infrastructure for declarative programming with space and semantics.

Keywords: logic programming, prolog, rdf, spatial indexing
