It would be awesome if the WDQS UI could show geoshapes on the Map view. @Jheald requested this in a comment, but I don’t think we have a dedicated task for it yet.
Bonus points if it’s possible to assign a particular color to the shape (e. g. for political maps or heatmap-style maps), perhaps using a rgb column similar to the Bubble Chart and Graph views.
Requires T160535, of course.
| Subject | Repo | Branch | Lines +/- | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Show geoshapes in Map view | wikidata/query/gui | master | +166 -65 | |
| Add support for per-result colors in map view | wikidata/query/gui | master | +29 -6 |
I believe there is a more fundamental problem, that statements of this datatype are missing from WDQS results
These two queries using P3896: geoshape produce 0 results, but Q11299: Manhattan uses it:
SELECT ?item
WHERE
{
?item wdt:P3896 ?geoshape
}SELECT ?geoshape
WHERE
{
wd:Q11299 wdt:P3896 ?geoshape
}We just finished T160535: [Task] Provide RDF mapping for geoshape data type. so it will be exported when the change is deployed.
