Abstract

The objective of this paper is to fill in the gap existing between the need of business companies and analysts to spatially correlate open geo-data and social network geo-tagged information, and the lack of tools to enable this task in an easy way. To this end we propose a novel declarative query language named J-CO (JSON Collections) to perform complex queries on heterogeneous collections of data stored within a NoSQL database as JSON objects.
