A number of ontologies of spatial relations have been defined in the literature, but most of these are either confined to a small subset of
relations, or focussed on language expressions, and not specified geometrically. This paper presents an ontology of geometric
configurations, to reflect and specify the range of spatial relations that have been discussed by previous researchers and that are commonly
expressed in natural language, and to provide a sufficiently specific definition of the relations to allow them to be executed as spatial
queries. Although this work was motivated by a goal to translate natural language describing location into spatial queries, we anticipate
wider applications of the ontology for other purposes.
We define a three level ontology, informed by the literature and the study of a corpus of expressions of natural language geospatial
location descriptions, and present the concepts and the definition using spatial queries. [-]
