Content• Main objective• Current status• Work done so far• Architecture• Transformation & Publication• Outcomes• Benefits & Challenges• Forecast

• Exposure of INSPIRE and other geo data and metadata into the semantic Web of Data

Main objective

Current status

• Contribution to development and use of:

New Vocabularies• SmOD INSPIRE vocabula

ries• Contaminated sites / en

vironmental burdens vocabulary

Work done so far

• Transformed data for:INSPIRE

• Protected sites• Land Cover• Biogeografical egions• Species distributionOther• Contaminated sites /

environmental burdens

• Metadata:• SK INSPIRE CS-W• Metadata for OGC WxS APIs

searchable via Google search API

Work done so far

• SchemaArchitecture

Open Data publication methodology Transformation & publication

Open Data Node Transformation & publication

Unified views Transformation and publication

Outcomes: Data• Linkable RDF data

• GeoSparql API• RDF Dumps

• Vizualization• SEFARAD Demo• Payola Demo

Outcomes: Metadata• List of OGC WxS APIs

• CS-W Publication(GeoNetwork)

• Sparql endpoint (TripleGeoCSW) Publication

• Main benefits• Possibility to combine straightforward SK linked datasets with third

party datasets (large and rich datasets, such as Geonames.org, can be linked and additional features may be drawn from them to frame the original data into a broader context)

• Re-use of effort made in INSPIRE compliance as well as in related projects (GeoKnow, COMSODE)

• Main challenges• New way of thinking (Open world assumption perception)• Toolset support for harmonised Coordinate reference systems• Encoding of geometries• Availability of skilled expertise

Benefits & Challenges

• Migration to SAZP Infrastructurehttp://data.sazp.sk • Data enrichment with external links:

• From SmartOpenData resources• From other resources

• Metadata completion• Harvesting to LENGTH

• Improved visualisation• SmOD Front-end facilities

• Awareness rising• Consultation/Survey• Conferences• Worhshops/Hackathons

Forecast

Foreseen links• Geonames <>SK Protected sites• EEA Natura 2000 Standard Data Flow r

eporting <>SK Protected sites

• Links to other SmartOpenData datasets Potencional links

• Geonames <>SK Contaminated sites• WISE-SoE Reporting: Lakes Water

Quality <>SK Contaminated sites
