[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] [Created] T139826: allow entry by coordinates for Wikidata Query Service wikibase:box

[Esc3300]

TASK DESCRIPTION

The sample at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikidata_query_service/User_Manual#Search_within_box currently requires entry through coordinates on an item.

• wd:Q986857 has the coordinates
• "wd:Q986857 wdt:P625 ?SJloc" assigns them to ?SJloc
• "bd:serviceParam wikibase:cornerNorthWest ?SJloc" uses them

It should be possible to define them directly in the query (maybe it is, but it's not documentated). Sample:

SELECT * WHERE {

SERVICE wikibase:box {
    ?place wdt:P625 ?location .
    bd:serviceParam wikibase:cornerSouthWest Point(-121.872777777 37.304166666) .
    bd:serviceParam wikibase:cornerNorthEast Point(-121.486111111 38.575277777) .
  }
?place wdt:P31/wdt:P279* wd:Q3914 .

}

Or at least:

SELECT * WHERE {

BIND(Point(-121.872777777 37.304166666) as ?SJloc)
BIND(Point(-121.486111111 38.575277777) as ?SCloc)
SERVICE wikibase:box {
    ?place wdt:P625 ?location .
    bd:serviceParam wikibase:cornerSouthWest ?SJloc .
    bd:serviceParam wikibase:cornerNorthEast ?SCloc .
  }
?place wdt:P31/wdt:P279* wd:Q3914 .

}
