To make use of the XPath query functionality within
OpenCities Geospatial Administrator requires knowledge of the underlying XML document (for
example, the GeospatialSchema DOM) that is loaded and an understanding of basic
XPATH expressions. Some examples of XPATH queries are below.
Syntax:

All
<feature> elements within the current context of
the selected schema node.
Syntax:
//feature
All

All
<symbology> children elements from the schema
that contain a
useCriteria attribute.
Syntax:

type="string" from the schema.
Syntax:
//feature[substring(@name,1,1) = "A"]
All
