Generic Extension

[gerbsen]

Hi,
first of all thank you for this sweet library. It worked very well so far.
My observation while using this tool was, that it seemed very much tailored towards a specific kind of shape files.
I have shape files with lots of data columns (sorry not sure about the correct terminology), but this tool can only handle two features like "name" and "type".
Is there any extension planned which is able to handle a multitude of features?

So far I've cloned the project and edited it to my needs (i don't think it's possible to merge this again), but a more generic version (possible in maven :)) would be very cool.

Cheers,
Daniel

Daniel,

Daniel, thanks a lot for your feedback and kind remarks.

Regarding your question: By now, our main concern for TripleGeo was to extract geographic features as RDF triples along with some basic descriptive information (identifiers, names, types). Support for more thematic attributes (i.e., data columns) is among our plans for a future release (hopefully in a few months).

Hi, so as discussed at the GeoKnow Year 1 Review Meeting, I suggest that we factor out the R2RML and SML parsers (and possibly the corresponding RowMapper classes) from Sparqlify into a separate project, so that TripleGeo can readily re-use them.
