Controlled Language for Geographical Information System Queries

Natural language interfaces to spatial databases have not received a lot of attention in computational linguistics, in spite of the potential value of such systems for users of Geographical Information Systems (GISs). This paper presents a controlled language for GIS queries, solves some of the semantic problems for spatial inference in this language, and introduces a system that implements this controlled language as a novel interface for GIS.
