Clause (TQL)

A TQL query statement consists of a command, either Select or Update, and a list of clauses. The clauses provide further specification of the query statement, or a refinement, spatially or property wise. A clause consists of a clause parameter and a clause value, where currently the only supported operator between the parameter and value is IS.
