with a Linked Data perspective

Meetup: Linked Data in Sweden

Multiple projects with similar goals

• Organic.Edunet as example because of its
  characteristics
  -   Heterogeneous metadata
  -   Multiple stakeholders and standards
  -   Ontology
  -   Big user base
  -   Used in production environments
  -   Not typically academic (content-centric)
EntryStore – conceptual overview

                    • Named graphs
                    • REST API
                    • ACL
                    • Harvesting
                    • Querying
                    • On-the-fly MD conversions
                    • SPARQL
                    • Literal indexing

                          Open Source
Interoperability

      FAO                       Organic

              EntryStore
              HTTP           SPARQL

                     RDF core
              Solr              OAI-PMH
                       SQI
Lessons learned - ontology

• Ontology
  - Good for domain experts
  - Pain for “annotators”
  - Nobody used ontology tree
   • Flat list with type-ahead is popular
   • Difficult to grasp hierarchy
Lessons learned - licensing

• Ensure licensing is clear
  -   Creative Commons
  -   Open Data Commons
  -   Custom licenses
  -   Organic.Edunet: CC0


• Data != Metadata
  - Often confused when it comes to licensing
Lessons learned - interoperability

• W3C standards everywhere
  - Exception: some formats, e.g. IEEE LOM


• Triplification has to be done by experts

• Remix of various vocabularies

• Search engines find resources directly
Lessons learned – practical problems

• Complexity
  - Try to find a student...
  - Big technology stack


• Need for authoritative and quality-controlled
  (meta)data

• Legacy data has to be converted and mapped

• Scalability
WIN!

No user ever noticed the technology behind




   “Rule number 1 in building web software: never show
  the URI. If the URI does not have a label, go and beat
                                         somebody up.”

                              Tim Berners-Lee at LDOW
                                         April 16, 2012
FAIL?

OK, there was the ontology...




           “The one big ontology approach didn't work”

                                Tim Berners-Lee at LDOW
                                           April 16, 2012
Current work / experiments

• Data-driven Sustainability
   - footprinted.org, in collaboration with Sourcemap.com
   - Data bridges (EIT ICT Labs)
   - Miljöbarometern (visualizations, Google Refine)
   - Green Hackathon


• Large scale triplification and interlinking of educational metadata
   - ARIADNE
   - Open Discovery Space


• Contextualization of cultural heritage metadata
   - Europeana (Hack4Europe!)
