Linked Open Data – The Opportunity • Manage relationships for massive
collections of structured and unstructured data
• Flexible and extensible data model supports powerful search and end-user discovery of related content
• Enable users to define their social networks or communities based on common interests, subjects, image scenes, locations, etc.
• Rich platform for data integration, data repurposing, and better quality control and classification
• Tactical, non-invasive, iterative solution for strategic modernization

Resource Description Framework (RDF)
RDF is a general framework for describing a Web site's metadata, or the information about the information on the site. It provides interoperability between applications that exchange machine-understandable information on the Web. W3C
![Page 9: Linking Open Data with Location: Gazetteers and the Semantic Web](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56813459550346895d9b3cf7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Gazetteers and Linked Open Data Services
• Provide common terms (place names) to link across existing spatial data resources
• Enable consolidated view across the map layers• Reconcile differences in data semantics so that they
can all “talk”and interoperate• Resolving semantic discrepancies across databases
gazetteers and applications• Integrate full breath of enterprise content continuum
(structured, spatial, email, documents, web services)
![Page 11: Linking Open Data with Location: Gazetteers and the Semantic Web](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56813459550346895d9b3cf7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Modeling: Enterprise Integration
• Ordnance Survey maintains definitive mapping data of Great Britain, the world’s largest and most detailed Geo DB
• Semantic Web is used to integrate different, semantically diverse sources of data
•General ontologies already developed to bridge differences in terminology
•The data is queried efficiently via the ontology or RDF
•Advantages include efficient data integration, data repurposing, and better quality control and classification

From Linked Data to Knowledge Management
![Page 13: Linking Open Data with Location: Gazetteers and the Semantic Web](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56813459550346895d9b3cf7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Knowledge Management Conditions
• Filtering search queries with “context”• Discovery of data relationships across…
• Structured data (database, apps, web services, RSS schemas)• Unstructured data (email, office documents)
• Queries are not defined in advance• Schemas are continuously evolving• Support Machine2Machine interaction• Location can be common link, along with names, concepts,
synonyms

• We need to associate a number of factors, including hospital type and facilities – its accessibility after a disaster – and the staff available
• The query needs to be structured based on Concepts & Relationships that can be retrieved and then customized for the specific query.
• Using this approach, a listing of the hospitals capable of dealing with large number of burn cases is returned to the user and information associated with the query retrieved.
A “Simple” Knowledge Query
Which hospitals within 30 mins of Alpine, CA provide burn treatment?”
![Page 17: Linking Open Data with Location: Gazetteers and the Semantic Web](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56813459550346895d9b3cf7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
“Typical” Analyst Query:
“Which hospitals within 30 mins of Alpine, CA provide burn treatment?”

• Key semantic technologies are mature
• Semantic technologies are key enablers for enterprise and Web
• Reuse existing of authoritative gazetteers are needed
• Model the real world rather than data artifacts

Information Explosion
• Structured data stores are growing in size• Amount of semi-structured data is
expanding (XML, RDF, Semantics, Spatial)• Metric data, beacons, sensors supplying
mega volumes• Unstructured data is gathered at a
staggering pace (email, documents, messages, streams, feeds)
