Abstract :
In the last decade, a growing interest has been devoted to the management of data referring to geographic scenarios. However, the attention of recent research has been focused on discrete data disregarding continuous data, because of their intrinsic complexity. We introduce an extension of a spatial SQL, which provides users with the capability to pose queries about both discrete and continuous data.
