Ontop of Geospatial Databases
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose an OBDA approach for accessing geospatial data stored in relational databases, using the OGC standard GeoSPARQL and R2RML or OBDA mappings. We introduce extensions to an existing SPARQL-to-SQL translation method to support GeoSPARQL features. We describe the implementation of our approach in the system ontopspatial, an extension of the OBDA system Ontop for creating virtual geospatial RDF graphs on top of geospatial relational databases. We present an experimental evaluation of our system using and extending a state-of-the-art benchmark. To measure the performance of our system, we compare it to a state-of-the-art geospatial RDF store and confirm its efficiency.

Ontology-Based Data Access: Ontop of Databases
We present the architecture and technologies underpinning the OBDA system Ontop and taking full advantage of storing data in relational databases. We discuss the theoretical foundations of Ontop: the tree-witness query rewriting, T -mappings and optimisations based on database integrity constraints and SQL features. We analyse the performance of Ontop in a series of experiments and demonstrate ...
متن کاملHow to Stay Ontop of Your Data: Databases, Ontologies and More
Ontop is an Ontology Based Data Access system allowing users to access a relational database through a conceptual layer provided by an ontology. In this demo, we use the recently developed NPD benchmark (+4 billion triples) to demonstrate the features of Ontop . First we use Ontop as a SPARQL end-point to load the ontology and mappings, and answer SPARQL queries. Then, we will show how to use O...

متن کاملOntop at Work
We describe the architecture of the OBDA systemOntop and analyse its performance in a series of experiments. We demonstrate that, for standard ontologies, queries and data stored in relational databases, Ontop is fast, efficient and produces SQL rewritings of high quality.
متن کاملOntop: Answering SPARQL queries over relational databases
In this paper we present Ontop, an open-source Ontology Based Data Access (OBDA) system that allows for querying relational data sources through a conceptual representation of the domain of interest, provided in terms of an ontology, to which the data sources are mapped. Key features of Ontop are its solid theoretical foundations, a virtual approach to OBDA that avoids materializing triples and...
