- Abstract: Geospatial knowledge graphs have emerged as a novel paradigm for representing and reasoning over geospatial information. In this framework, entities such as places, people, events, and observations are depicted as nodes, while their relationships are represented as edges. This graph-based data format lays the foundation for creating a "FAIR" (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) environment, facilitating the management and analysis of geographic information. This entry first introduces key concepts in knowledge graphs along with their associated standardization and tools. It then delves into the application of knowledge graphs in geography and environmental sciences, emphasizing their role in bridging symbolic and subsymbolic GeoAI to address cross-disciplinary geospatial challenges. At the end, new research directions related to geospatial knowledge graphs are outlined.

Geospatial Knowledge Graphs (GeoKGs) model geoentities and spatial relationships in an interconnected manner.
Existing methods for mining and reasoning from GeoKGs, such as popular knowledge graph embedding (KGE) techniques, lack geographic awareness.
This study aims to enhance general-purpose KGE by developing new strategies and integrating geometric features of spatial relations.

KnowWhereGraph is one of the largest publicly available geospatial knowledge graphs.
It includes data from 30 layers on natural hazards (e.g., hurricanes, wildfires), climate variables (e.g., air temperature, precipitation), soil properties, crop and land-cover types, demographics, and human health, various place and region identifiers.
These have been leveraged through the graph by a variety of applications to address challenges in food security and agricultural supply chains.

Graph-level learning has been applied to many tasks including comparison, regression, classification, and more.
Traditional approaches to learning a set of graphs rely on hand-crafted features, such as substructures.
Deep learning has helped graph-level learning adapt to the growing scale of graphs by extracting features automatically and encoding graphs into low-dimensional representations.
