Abstract
The need for cross-analyzing JSON objects representing heterogeneous geo-referenced information coming from multiple sources, such as open data published on the Web by public administrations and crowd-sourced posts and images from social networks, is becoming common for studying, predicting and planning social dynamics. Nevertheless, although NoSQL databases have emerged as a de facto standard means to store JSON objects, a query language that can be easily used by not-programmers to manipulate and correlate such data is still missing. Furthermore, when the information is geo-referenced, we also need both spatial analysis and mapping facilities.
