GTWS-1: Choropleth map of population density (per square kilometer) of landlocked countries in the world Figure 8 shows a second sample map of the GTWS-1 implementation: a proportional symbol map of nominal gross domestic product (GDP) per capita of all countries in the world. In this case, the SPARQL query to DBpedia retrieved the nominal GDP per capita for all the countries; the sql importer imported the data into the spatial database; a new table was created through a join; and a point symbol style created.

The open data movement has resulted in many datasets on the Web to be freely available for anyone to use and republish as they wish. The Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud is an example in the form of billions of Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples on the Web. Visualizing such open data in thematic maps provides a powerful spatial analysis tool...
