This webinar in the course of the LOD2 webinar series will present use cases and live demos of PoolParty (by Semantic Web Company). Knowledge organization systems like taxonomies or thesauri can benefit from linked data approaches and vice versa. In recent years SKOS became very popular in various industries due to its simplicity, SKOS turned out to be the entry point to the Semantic Web. Learn more about the possibilities to link your enterprise metadata with the web of data! Learn more about the possibilities to link your enterprise metadata with the web of data and PoolParty as means for linked data management! If you are interested in Linked (Open) Data principles and mechanisms, LOD tools & services and concrete use cases that can be realised using LOD then join us in the LOD2 webinar series! http://lod2.eu/BlogPost/webinar-series

2. Creating Knowledge out of Interlinked
Data
LOD2 is a large-scale integrating project co-funded by the European
Commission within the FP7 Information and Communication Technologies
Work Programme. This 4-year project comprises leading Linked Open
Data technology researchers, companies, and service providers. Coming
from across 12 countries the partners are coordinated by the Agile
Knowledge Engineering and Semantic Web Research Group at the
University of Leipzig, Germany.
LOD2 will integrate and syndicate Linked Data with existing large-scale
applications. The project shows the benefits in the scenarios of Media and
Publishing, Corporate Data intranets and eGovernment.
