The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Processing Spatial-Keyword (SK) Queries in Geographic Information Retrieval (GIR) Systems (2007, background): “Other relevant studies that addressed geographic search on the Web are [11, 5].”
Geospatial Cyberinfrastructure: Past, present and future (2010, background): “The geospatial Semantic Web is a vision in which locations and LBS are fully understood by machines (Egenhofer, 2002).”
A CyberGIS Framework for the Synthesis of Cyberinfrastructure, GIS, and Spatial Analysis (2010, background): “…S. Wang and Liu 2009), coupling of GIS and modeling (Kwan 2001; Wright et al. 2003), ontology-driven GIS (Fonseca et al. 2002), and semantic geospatial Web (Egenhofer 2002), have demonstrated in part the beneﬁts, challenges, and possibilities of CyberGIS to synthesize CI, GIS, and spatial analysis.”
Efficient query processing in geographic web search engines (2006, methodology): “An alternative to geo extraction is a Semantic Web approach [13] or the use of HTML meta tags [6, 11].”
Enabling the geospatial Semantic Web with Parliament and GeoSPARQL (2012, unknown): “GeoSPARQL goes a long way to solving one of the research issues posed by Egenhofer in [10], namely that "we need a plausible canonical form in which to pose geospatial data queries".”
