The obvious queries to be asked in a georeferenced information retrieval system are “What is here” asking for place names, feature types and information linked to this location and “Where is it” resulting in a reference in a map. But geographic queries can be classified further as defined in [6] and [19] and summarized by [18]. The concrete query types that can be used in a Geographic Information Retrieval environment are identified as Point in Polygon, which asks for any georeferenced information that contains, surrounds or refers to a particular geographic point location, Region Queries, which asks for information regarding anything that is contained in, adjacent to, or overlaps the region, Distance and Buffer Zone Queries, which asks for information within some fixed distance of a geographic object (point, line, polygon), Path Queries, which require the presence of a network structure that can be queried for network traversal information and Multimedia Queries which combine multiple geo- referenced information sources in resolving a query.
