The case for a standardised CRS ontology ⋆
Résumé
This article presents the case for a standardised web ontology for Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS), a component currently missing in the semantic description of (geo-)spatial data on the web. Such an ontology should simplify the access and interpretation of CRSs and their parametric definitions. Motivations are laid out, presenting the needs of developers, data curators, and users of spatial data. Possible approaches to developing such an ontology and use cases that may facilitate tackling customized coordinate reference systems incorporating the ontology model are described.
