+<p>This application provides a HTTP server compliant with the GeoSPARQL standard.
+It uses the embedded server Fuseki from Apache Jena and provides additional parameters for dataset loading.</p>
+<p>The project uses the GeoSPARQL implementation from the <a href="index">GeoSPARQL Jena project</a>.
+Currently, there is no GUI interface as provided in the Fuseki distribution.</p>
+<p>A subset of the EPSG spatial/coordinate reference systems are included by default from the Apache SIS project (http://sis.apache.org).
+The full EPSG dataset is not distributed due to the the EPSG terms of use being incompatible with the Apache Licence.
+Several options are available to include the EPSG dataset by setting the <code>SIS_DATA</code> environment variable (http://sis.apache.org/epsg.html).</p>
+<p>It is expected that at least one Geometry Literal or Geo Predicate is present in a dataset.
+A spatial index is created and new data cannot be added to the index once built.
+The spatial index can optionally be stored for future usage and needs to removed from a TDB folder if the index is to rebuilt.</p>
+<h2 id="getting-started">Getting Started<a class="headerlink" href="#getting-started" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>GeoSPARQL Fuskei can be accessed as an embedded server using Maven etc. from Maven Central or run from the command line.
+SPARQL queries directly on Jena Datasets and Models can be done using
+the <a href="index">GeoSPARQL Jena project</a>.</p>
+<p><code><dependency>
+ <groupId>org.apache.jena</groupId>
+ <artifactId>fuseki-geosparql</artifactId>
+ <version>...</version>
+</dependency></code></p>
+<h3 id="command-line">Command Line<a class="headerlink" href="#command-line" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Run from the command line (see <code>releases</code> tab) and send queries over HTTP.</p>
+<p>Get Started Example:
+<code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -rf "geosparql_test.rdf>xml" -i</code></p>
+<p>The example file <code>geosparql_test.rdf</code> in the GitHub repository contains several geometries in geodectic WGS84 (EPSG:4326).
+The example file <code>geosparql_test_27700.rdf</code> is identical but in the projected OSGB36 (EPSG:27770) used in the United Kingdom.
+Both will return the same results as GeoSPARQL treats all SRS as being projected.
+RDFS inferencing is applied using the GeoSPARQL schema to infer additional relationships (which aren't asserted in the example files) that are used in the spatial operations and data retrieval.</p>
+<p>Examples:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p>Load RDF file (XML format) into memory and run server: <code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -rf "test.rdf>xml"</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Load RDF file (TTL format: default) into memory, apply GeoSPARQL schema with RDFS inferencing and run server: <code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -rf "test.rdf" -i</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Load RDF file into memory, write spatial index to file and run server: <code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -rf "test.rdf" -si "spatial.index"</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Load RDF file into persistent TDB and run server: <code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -rf "test.rdf>xml" -t ".\TestTDB"</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Load from persistent TDB and run server: <code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -t ".\TestTDB"</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Load from persistent TDB, change port and run server: <code>.\geosparql-fuseki.bat -t ".\TestTDB" -p 3030</code></p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>See <a href="https://github.com/galbiston/rdf-tables">rdf-tables</a> in <em>Output Formats/Serialisations</em> for supported RDF format keywords.</p>
+<p><strong>N.B.</strong> Windows Powershell will strip quotation pairs from arguments and so triple quotation pairs may be required, e.g. """test.rdf>xml""". Otherwise, logging output will be sent to a file called "xml". Also, "The input line is too long" error can mean the path to the .bat exceeds the character limit and needs shortening.</p>
+<h3 id="embedded-server">Embedded Server<a class="headerlink" href="#embedded-server" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Run within a Java application to provide GeoSPARQL support over HTTP to other applications:</p>
+<p><code>GeosparqlServer server = new GeosparqlServer(portNumber, datasetName, isLoopbackOnly, dataset, isUpdate);</code></p>
+<h2 id="sparql-query-example">SPARQL Query Example<a class="headerlink" href="#sparql-query-example" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>Once the default server is running it can be queried using Apache Jena as follows:</p>
+<p><code>String service = "http://localhost:3030/ds";
+String query = ....;
+try (QueryExecution qe = QueryExecutionFactory.sparqlService(service, query)) {
+ ResultSet rs = qe.execSelect();
+ ResultSetFormatter.outputAsTSV(rs);
+}</code></p>
+<p>The server will respond to any valid SPARQL HTTP so an alternative SPARQL framework can be used.
+More information on SPARQL querying using Apache Jena can be found on their website (https://jena.apache.org/tutorials/sparql.html).</p>
+<h2 id="sis_data-environment-variable">SIS_DATA Environment Variable<a class="headerlink" href="#sis_data-environment-variable" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>The Apache SIS library is used to support the recognition and transformation of Coordinate/Spatial Reference Systems.
+These Reference Systems are published as the EPSG dataset.
+The full EPSG dataset is not distributed due to the EPSG terms of use being incompatible with the Apache Licence.
+A subset of the EPSG spatial/coordinate reference systems are included by default but the wider dataset may be required.
+Several options are available to include the EPSG dataset by setting the <code>SIS_DATA</code> environment variable (http://sis.apache.org/epsg.html).</p>
+<p>An embedded EPSG dataset can be included in an application by adding the following dependency:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p>Gradle dependency in <code>build.gradle</code>
+<code>ext.sisVersion = "0.8"
+implementation "org.apache.sis.non-free:sis-embedded-data:$sisVersion"</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Maven dependency in <code>pom.xml</code>
+<code><dependency>
+ <groupId>org.apache.sis.non-free</groupId>
+ <artifactId>sis-embedded-data</artifactId>
+ <version>0.8</version>
+</dependency></code></p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="command-line-arguments">Command Line Arguments<a class="headerlink" href="#command-line-arguments" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>

+<p>An implementation of GeoSPARQL 1.0 standard for SPARQL query or API.</p>
+<h2 id="features">Features<a class="headerlink" href="#features" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>This implementation follows the 11-052r4 OGC GeoSPARQL standard (http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/geosparql).
+The implementation is pure Java and does not require any set-up or configuration of any third party relational databases and geospatial extensions.</p>
+<p>It implements the six Conformance Classes described in the GeoSPARQL document:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Core</li>
+<li>Topology Vocabulary</li>
+<li>Geometry Extension</li>
+<li>Geometry Topology</li>
+<li>RDFS Entailment Extension</li>
+<li>Query Rewrite Extension</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The WKT (as described in 11-052r4) and GML 2.0 Simple Features Profile (10-100r3) serialisations are supported.
+Additional serialisations can be implemented by extending the
+<code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.implementation.datatype.GeometryDatatype</code>
+and registering with Apache Jena's <code>org.apache.jena.datatypes.TypeMapper</code>.</p>
+<p>All three spatial relation families are supported: <em>Simple Feature</em>, <em>Egenhofer</em> and <em>RCC8</em>.</p>
+<p>Indexing and caching of spatial objects and relations is performed <em>on-demand</em> during query execution.
+Therefore, set-up delays should be minimal.</p>
+<p>Benchmarking of the implementation against Strabon and Parliament has found it to be comparable or quicker.
+The benchmarking used was the Geographica query and dataset (http://geographica.di.uoa.gr/).
+Publication of the benchmarking results are forthcoming.</p>
+<h2 id="additional-features">Additional Features<a class="headerlink" href="#additional-features" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>The following additional features are also provided:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Geometry properties are automatically calculated and do not need to be asserted in the dataset.</li>
+<li>Conversion between EPSG spatial/coordinate reference systems is applied automatically. Therefore, mixed datasets or querying can be applied. This is reliance upon local installation of Apache SIS EPSG dataset, see <strong>Key Dependencies</strong>.</li>
+<li>Units of measure are automatically converted to the appropriate units for the coordinate reference system.</li>
+<li>Geometry, transformation and spatial relation results are stored in persistent and configurable time-limited caches to improve response times and reduce recalculations.</li>
+<li>Dataset conversion between serialisations and spatial/coordinate reference systems. Tabular data can also be loaded, see RDF Tables project (https://github.com/galbiston/rdf-tables).</li>
+<li>Functions to test Geometry properties directly on Geometry Literals have been included for convenience.</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="getting-started">Getting Started<a class="headerlink" href="#getting-started" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>GeoSPARQL Jena can be accessed as a library using Maven etc. from Maven Central.</p>
+<p><code><dependency>
+ <groupId>org.apache.jena</groupId>
+ <artifactId>jena-geosparql</artifactId>
+ <version>...</version>
+</dependency></code></p>
+<p>A HTTP server (SPARQL endpoint) using is available - for details, see the <a href="geosparql-fuseki">Geosparql Fuseki documentation</a>.</p>
+<h3 id="sparql-query-configuration">SPARQL Query Configuration<a class="headerlink" href="#sparql-query-configuration" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Using the library for SPARQL querying requires one line of code.
+All indexing and caching is performed during query execution and so there should be minimal delay during initialisation.
+This will register the Property Functions with ARQ query engine and configures the <em>indexes</em> used for time-limited caching.</p>
+<p>There are three <em>indexes</em> which can be configured independently or switched off.
+These <em>indexes</em> retain data that may be required again when a query is being executed but may not be required between different queries.
+Therefore, the memory usage will grow during query execution and then recede as data is not re-used.
+All the <em>indexes</em> support concurrency and can be set to a maximum size or allowed to increase capacity as required.</p>
+<ul>
+<li><em>Geometry Literal</em>: Geometry objects following de-serialisation from <code>Geometry Literal</code>.</li>
+<li><em>Geometry Transform</em>: Geometry objects resulting from coordinate transformations between spatial reference systems.</li>
+<li><em>Query Rewrite</em>: results of spatial relations between <code>Feature</code> and <code>Geometry</code> spatial objects.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Testing has found up to 20% improvement in query completion durations using the indexes.
+The <em>indexes</em> can be configured by size, retention duration and frequency of clean up.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p>Basic setup with default values: <code>GeoSPARQLConfig.setupMemoryIndex()</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Indexes set to maximum sizes: <code>GeoSPARQLConfig.setupMemoryIndexSize(50000, 50000, 50000)</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Indexes set to remove objects not used after 5 seconds: <code>GeoSPARQLConfig.setupMemoryIndexExpiry(5000, 5000, 5000)</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>No indexes setup (Query rewrite still performed but results not stored) : <code>GeoSPARQLConfig.setupNoIndex()</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>No indexes and no query rewriting: <code>GeoSPARQLConfig.setupNoIndex(false)</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Reset indexes and other stored data: <code>GeoSPARQLConfig.reset()</code></p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>A variety of configuration methods are provided in
+<code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.configuration.GeoSPARQLConfig</code>.
+Caching of frequently used but small quantity data is also applied in several <em>registries</em>, e.g. coordinate reference systems and mathematical transformations.</p>
+<p>Example GeoSPARQL query:</p>
+<p>```
+PREFIX geo: <a href="http://www.opengis.net/ont/geosparql#">http://www.opengis.net/ont/geosparql#</a></p>
+<p>SELECT ?obj
+WHERE{
+ ?subj geo:sfContains ?obj
+}ORDER by ?obj
+```</p>
+<h3 id="querying-datasets-models-with-sparql">Querying Datasets & Models with SPARQL<a class="headerlink" href="#querying-datasets-models-with-sparql" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The setup of GeoSPARQL Jena only needs to be performed once in an application.
+After it is setup querying is performed using Apache Jena's standard query methods.</p>
+<p>To query a Model with GeoSPARQL or standard SPARQL:</p>
+<p>```
+GeoSPARQLConfig.setupMemoryIndex();
+Model model = .....;
+String query = ....;</p>
+<p>try (QueryExecution qe = QueryExecutionFactory.create(query, model)) {
+ ResultSet rs = qe.execSelect();
+ ResultSetFormatter.outputAsTSV(rs);
+}
+```</p>
+<p>More information on SPARQL querying using Apache Jena can be found on their website (https://jena.apache.org/tutorials/sparql.html).
+If your dataset needs to be separate from your application and accessed over HTTP then you probably need
+the <a href="geosparql-fuseki">GeoSPARQL Fuseki project</a>.
+The GeoSPARQL functionality needs to be setup in the application or Fuseki server where the dataset is located.</p>
+<p>It is <strong>recommended</strong> that <code>hasDefaultGeometry</code> properties are included in the dataset to access all functionality.
+It is <strong>necessary</strong> that <code>SpatialObject</code> classes are asserted or inferred (i.e. a reasoner with the GeoSPARQL schema is applied) in the dataset.
+Methods to prepare a dataset can be found in <code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.configuration.GeoSPARQLOperations</code>.</p>
+<h3 id="api">API<a class="headerlink" href="#api" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The library can be used as an API in Java.
+The main class to handle geometries and their spatial relations is the <code>GeometryWrapper</code>.
+This can be obtained by parsing the string representation of a geometry using the appropriate datatype (e.g. WKT or GML).
+Alternatively, a Literal can be extracted automatically using the <code>GeometryWrapper.extract()</code> method and registered datatypes.
+The <code>GeometryWrapperFactory</code> can be used to directly construct a <code>GeometryWrapper</code>.
+There is overlap between spatial relation families so repeated methods are not specified.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p>Parse a <code>Geometry Literal</code>: <code>GeometryWrapper geometryWrapper = WKTDatatype.INSTANCE.parse("POINT(1 1)");</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Extract from a Jena Literal: <code>GeometryWrapper geometryWrapper = GeometryWrapper.extract(geometryLiteral);</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Create from a JTS Geometry: <code>GeometryWrapper geometryWrapper = GeometryWrapperFactory.createGeometry(geometry, srsURI, geometryDatatypeURI);</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Create from a JTS Point Geometry: <code>GeometryWrapper geometryWrapper = GeometryWrapperFactory.createPoint(coordinate, srsURI, geometryDatatypeURI);</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Convert CRS/SRS: <code>GeometryWrapper otherGeometryWrapper = geometryWrapper.convertCRS("http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/27700")</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Spatial Relation: <code>boolean isCrossing = geometryWrapper.crosses(otherGeometryWrapper);</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>DE-9IM Intersection Pattern: <code>boolean isRelated = geometryWrapper.relate(otherGeometryWrapper, "TFFFTFFFT");</code></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Geometry Property: <code>boolean isEmpty = geometryWrapper.isEmpty();</code></p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The GeoSPARQL standard specifies that WKT Geometry Literals without an SRS URI are defaulted to CRS84 <code>http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84</code>.</p>
+<h2 id="key-dependencies">Key Dependencies<a class="headerlink" href="#key-dependencies" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<h3 id="geosparql">GeoSPARQL<a class="headerlink" href="#geosparql" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The OGC GeoSPARQL standard supports representing and querying geospatial data on the Semantic Web.
+GeoSPARQL defines a vocabulary for representing geospatial data in RDF, and it defines an extension to the SPARQL query language for processing geospatial data.
+In addition, GeoSPARQL is designed to accommodate systems based on qualitative spatial reasoning and systems based on quantitative spatial computations.</p>
+<p>The GeoSPARQL standard is based upon the OGC Simple Features standard (http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/sfa) used in relational databases.
+Modifications and enhancements have been made for usage with RDF and SPARQL.
+The Simple Features standard, and by extension GeoSPARQL, simplify calculations to Euclidean planer geometry.
+Therefore, datasets using a geographic spatial/coordinate reference system, which are based on latitude and longitude on an ellipsoid, e.g. WGS84, will have minor error introduced.
+This error has been deemed acceptable due to the simplification in calculation it offers.</p>
+<h3 id="apache-jena">Apache Jena<a class="headerlink" href="#apache-jena" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>A Java framework for building Semantic Web and Linked Data applications.
+The framework provides standard compliance for RDF and SPARQL and include extensions for persistent storage (TDB) and HTTP server (Fuseki).</p>
+<h3 id="apache-sissis_data-environment-variable">Apache SIS/SIS_DATA Environment Variable<a class="headerlink" href="#apache-sissis_data-environment-variable" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Apache Spatial Information System (SIS) is a free software, Java language library for developing geospatial applications.
+SIS provides data structures for geographic features and associated meta-data along with methods to manipulate those data structures.
+The library is an implementation of GeoAPI 3.0 interfaces and can be used for desktop or server applications.</p>
+<p>A subset of the EPSG spatial/coordinate reference systems are included by default.
+The full EPSG dataset is not distributed due to the EPSG terms of use being incompatible with the Apache Licence.
+Several options are available to include the EPSG dataset by setting the <code>SIS_DATA</code> environment variable (http://sis.apache.org/epsg.html).</p>
+<p>An embedded EPSG dataset can be included in a Gradle application by adding the following dependency to <code>build.gradle</code>:
+<code>ext.sisVersion = "0.8"
+implementation "org.apache.sis.non-free:sis-embedded-data:$sisVersion"</code></p>
+<h3 id="java-topology-suite">Java Topology Suite<a class="headerlink" href="#java-topology-suite" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The JTS Topology Suite is a Java library for creating and manipulating vector geometry.</p>
+<h2 id="note">Note<a class="headerlink" href="#note" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
+<p>The following are implementation points that may be useful during usage.</p>
+<h3 id="geosparql-schema">GeoSPARQL Schema<a class="headerlink" href="#geosparql-schema" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>An RDF/XML schema has been published for the GeoSPARQL v1.0 standard (v1.0.1 - http://schemas.opengis.net/geosparql/1.0/geosparql_vocab_all.rdf).
+This can be applied to Jena Models (https://jena.apache.org/documentation/inference/) to provide RDFS and OWL inferencing on a GeoSPARQL conforming dataset.
+However, the published schema does not conform with the standard.</p>
+<p>The property <code>hasDefaultGeometry</code> is missing from the schema and instead the <code>defaultGeometry</code> property is stated.</p>
+<p>This prevents RDFS inferencing being performed correctly and has been reported to the OGC Standards Tracker.
+A corrected version of the schema is available in the <code>Resources</code> folder.</p>
+<h3 id="spatial-relations">Spatial Relations<a class="headerlink" href="#spatial-relations" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The GeoSPARQL and Simple Features standard both define the DE-9IM intersection patterns for the three spatial relation families.
+However, these patterns are not always consistent with the patterns stated by the JTS library for certain relations.</p>
+<p>For example, GeoSPARQL/Simple Features use <code>TFFFTFFFT</code> <em>equals</em> relations in <em>Simple Feature</em>, <em>Egenhofer</em> and <em>RCC8</em>.
+However, this does not yield the usually expected result when comparing a pair of point geometries.
+The Simple Features standard states that the boundary of a point is empty.
+Therefore, the boundary intersection of two points would also be empty so give a negative comparison result.</p>
+<p>JTS, and other libraries, use the alternative intersection pattern of <code>T*F**FFF*</code>.
+This is a combination of the <em>within</em> and <em>contains</em> relations and yields the expected results for all geometry types.</p>
+<p>The spatial relations utilised by JTS have been implemented as the extension <code>spatial:equals</code> filter and property functions.
+A user can also supply their own DE-9IM intersection patterns by using the <code>geof:relate</code> filter function.</p>
+<h3 id="spatial-relations-and-geometry-shapestypes">Spatial Relations and Geometry Shapes/Types<a class="headerlink" href="#spatial-relations-and-geometry-shapestypes" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The spatial relations for the three spatial families do not apply to all combinations of the geometry shapes (<code>Point</code>, <code>LineString</code>, <code>Polygon</code>) and their collections (<code>MultiPoint</code>, <code>MultiLineString</code>, <code>MultiPolygon</code>).
+Therefore, some queries may not produce all the results that may initially be expected.</p>
+<p>Some examples are:
+<em> In some relations there may only be results when a collection of shapes is being used, e.g. two multi-points can overlap but two points cannot.
+</em> A relation may only apply for one combination but not its reciprocal, e.g. a line may cross a polygon but a polygon may not cross a line.
+* The <em>RCC8</em> family only applies to <code>Polygon</code> and <code>MultiPolygon</code> types.</p>
+<p>Refer to pages 8-10 of 11-052r4 GeoSPARQL standard for more details.</p>
+<h3 id="equals-relations">Equals Relations<a class="headerlink" href="#equals-relations" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The three equals relations (<em>sfEquals</em>, <em>ehEquals</em> and <em>rccEquals</em>) use spatial equality and not lexical equality.
+Therefore, some comparisons using these relations may not be as expected.</p>
+<p>The JTS description of <em>sfEquals</em> is:
+* True if two geometries have at least one point in common and no point of either geometry lies in the exterior of the other geometry.</p>
+<p>Therefore, two empty geometries will return false as they are not spatially equal.
+Shapes which differ in the number of points but have the same geometry are equal and will return true.</p>
+<p>e.g. <code>LINESTRING (0 0, 0 10)</code> and <code>LINESTRING (0 0, 0 5, 0 10)</code> are spatially equal.</p>
+<h3 id="query-rewrite-extension">Query Rewrite Extension<a class="headerlink" href="#query-rewrite-extension" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The Query Rewrite Extension provides for simpler querying syntax.
+<code>Feature</code> and <code>Geometry</code> can be used in spatial relations without needing the relations to be asserted in the dataset.
+This also means the <code>Geometry Literal</code> does not need to be specified in the query.
+In the case of <code>Features</code> this requires the <code>hasDefaultGeometry</code> property to be used in the dataset.</p>
+<p>This means the query:</p>
+<p>```
+ ?subj geo:hasDefaultGeometry ?subjGeom .
+ ?subjGeom geo:hasSerialization ?subjLit .</p>
+<div class="codehilite"><pre>?<span class="n">obj</span> <span class="n">geo</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="n">hasDefaultGeometry</span> ?<span class="n">objGeom</span> <span class="p">.</span>
+?<span class="n">objGeom</span> <span class="n">geo</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="n">hasSerialization</span> ?<span class="n">objLit</span> <span class="p">.</span>
+
+<span class="n">FILTER</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">geof</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="n">sfContains</span><span class="p">(</span>?<span class="n">subjLit</span><span class="p">,</span> ?<span class="n">objLit</span><span class="p">))</span>
+</pre></div>
+
+
+<p>```</p>
+<p>becomes:</p>
+<p><code>?subj geo:sfContains ?obj .</code></p>
+<p>Methods are available to apply the <code>hasDefaultGeometry</code> property to every <code>Geometry</code> with a single <code>hasGeometry</code>
+property, see <code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.configuration.GeoSPARQLOperations</code>.</p>
+<p>Depending upon the spatial relation, queries may include the specified <code>Feature</code> and <code>Geometry</code> in the results.
+e.g. FeatureA is bound in a query on a dataset only containing FeatureA and GeometryA. The results FeatureA and GeometryA are returned rather than no results.
+Therefore, filtering using <code>FILTER(!sameTerm(?subj, ?obj))</code> etc. may be needed in some cases.
+The query rewrite functionality can be switched off in the library configuration, see <code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.configuration.GeoSPARQLConfig</code>.</p>
+<p>Each dataset is assigned a Query Rewrite Index to store the results of previous tests.
+There is the potential that relations are tested multiple times in a query (i.e. <em>Feature-Feature</em>, <em>Feature-Geometry</em>, <em>Geometry-Geometry</em>, <em>Geometry-Feature</em>).
+Therefore, it is useful to retain the results for at least a short period of time.</p>
+<p>Iterating through all combinations of spatial relations for a dataset containing <em>n</em> Geometry Literals will produce 27<em>n</em>^2 true/false results (asserting the true result statements in a dataset would be a subset).

+<p>Other operations are available and can be applied to a Dataset containing multiple Models and in some cases files and folders.

+Once built the Spatial Index cannot have additional items added to it.</p>
+<p>A Spatial Index is required for the <code>jena-spatial</code> property functions and is optional for the GeoSPARQL spatial relations.
+Only a single SRS can be used for a Spatial Index and it is recommended that datasets are converted to a single SRS, see <code>GeoSPARQLOperations</code>.</p>
+<p>Setting up a Spatial Index can be done through <code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.configuration.GeoSPARQLConfig</code>.

+The profile supports Points, LineString and Polygon shapes used in WKT. There are also additional shape serialisations available in the profile that do not exist in WKT or JTS to provide simplified representations which would otherwise use LineStrings or Polygons.
+Curves can be described by LineStringSegment, Arc, Circle and CircleByCenterPoint. Surfaces can be formed similarly to Polygons or using Curves.
+These additional shapes can be read as part of a dataset or query but will not be produced if the SRS of the shape is transformed, instead a LineString or Polygon representation will be produced.</p>

+<p>The <code>jena-spatial</code> module contains several SPARQL functions for querying datasets using the WGS84 Geo predicates for latitude (<code>http://www.w3.org/2003/01/geo/wgs84_pos#lat</code>) and longitude (<code>http://www.w3.org/2003/01/geo/wgs84_pos#long</code>).
+These <code>jena-spatial</code> functions are supported for both Geo predicates and Geometry Literals, i.e. a GeoSPARQL dataset.
+Additional SPARQL filter functions have been provided to convert Geo predicate properties into WKT strings and calculate Great Circle and Euclidean distances.</p>
+<h3 id="supported-features">Supported Features<a class="headerlink" href="#supported-features" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
+<p>The Geo predicate form of spatial representation is restricted to only 'Point' shapes in the WGS84 spatial/coordinate reference system.
+The Geo predicates are properties of the <code>Feature</code> and do not use the properties and structure of the GeoSPARQL standard, including Geometry Literals.
+Methods are available to convert datasets from Geo predicates to GeoSPARQL structure, see: <code>org.apache.jena.geosparql.configuration.GeoSPARQLOperations</code></p>
+<p>The spatial relations and query re-writing of GeoSPARQL outlined previously has been implemented for Geo predicates.
+However, only certain spatial relations are valid for <code>Point</code> to <code>Point</code> relationships.
+Refer to pages 8-10 of 11-052r4 GeoSPARQL standard for more details.</p>
+<p>Geo predicates can be converted to Geometry Literals in query and then used with the GeoSPARQL filter functions.</p>
+<p><code>?subj wgs:lat ?lat .
+ ?subj wgs:long ?lon .
+ BIND(spatialF:convertLatLon(?lat, ?lon) as ?point) .
+ BIND("POLYGON((...))"^^<http://www.opengis.net/ont/geosparql#wktLiteral> AS ?box) . #Coordinate order is Lon/Lat without stated SRS URI.
+ FILTER(geof:sfContains(?box, ?point))</code></p>
+<p>Alternatively, utilising more shapes, relations and spatial reference systems can be achieved by converting the dataset to the GeoSPARQL structure.</p>
+<p><code>?subj geo:hasGeometry ?geom .
+ ?geom geo:hasSerialization ?geomLit .
+ BIND("POLYGON((...))"^^<http://www.opengis.net/ont/geosparql#wktLiteral> AS ?box) . #Coordinate order is Lon/Lat without stated SRS URI.
+ FILTER(geof:sfContains(?box, ?geomLit))</code></p>
+<p>Datasets can contain both Geo predicates and Geometry Literals without interference.
+However, a dataset containing both types will only examine those <code>Features</code> which have Geometry Literals for spatial relations, i.e. the check for Geo predicates is a fallback when Geometry Literals aren't found.
+Therefore, it is <strong>not</strong> recommended to insert new Geo predicate properties after a dataset has been converted to GeoSPARQL structure (unless corresponding Geometry and Geometry Literals are included).</p>
