spatial-web-sdk 0.1.0

Python SDK for the IEEE 2874-2025 Spatial Web standard (HSML/HSTP)

spatial-web-sdk

Python SDK for the IEEE 2874-2025 Spatial Web standard — the first open-source implementation of HSML (Hyperspace Modeling Language) and HSTP (Hyperspace Transaction Protocol).

About IEEE 2874-2025

IEEE 2874-2025 is the Spatial Web Protocol, Architecture and Governance standard, ratified May 29, 2025. It defines:

• HSML — Hyperspace Modeling Language: a human- and machine-readable semantic modeling language for describing entities (people, places, things, AI agents) and their relationships
• HSTP — Hyperspace Transaction Protocol: the protocol defining how Spatial Web entities interact, including spatial range queries, verifiable credentialing, and automated contracting
• UDG — Universal Domain Graph: the distributed metagraph of all Spatial Web relationships
• Agent Framework — governance and interoperability for autonomous AI agents

Described as the third foundational web protocol after TCP/IP (1970s) and HTTP/HTML (1990s).

Status

Pre-Alpha. Core HSML entity serialization and HSTP query client are in active development.

Planned Features

• Entity — HSML entity definition and JSON serialization
• SpatialQuery — HSTP spatial range query construction
• SWID — Spatial Web Identifier (did:swid) generation per W3C DID spec
• UDGNode — Local Universal Domain Graph node utilities
• Domain-specific ontology extensions (healthcare, manufacturing, energy)

Installation

pip install spatial-web-sdk

Quick Start (Coming Soon)

from spatial_web_sdk import Entity, EntityType, SpatialQuery

entity = Entity(
    entity_type=EntityType.DEVICE,
    name="Sensor A1",
    location={"lat": 37.7749, "lon": -122.4194},
)

print(entity.to_hsml())   # HSML JSON document
print(entity.swid)         # did:swid:...
