Specifying functions

Creating a function specification

(This is a work in progress in consultation with the GeoSPARQL WG)

Goals:

• Document a function in some language
• Provide examples of execution
• Provide a test suite
• Provide a range of implementation resources

Implementation resources

possible implementation resources include:

• formal mathematical expression
• implementation in one or more programming languages
• references to libraries
• test suites.

Building Blocks support

• make all implementation resources visible by role and language
• provide extension point to execute function on examples during validation
• provide in-line or linked online playgrounds
