Our Journey to Linked Open Data (LOD)


• Open Content Initiative and the GRI Portal• Concepts are from scholarly and trusted sources• All concepts and terms have unique identifiers• Vocabularies share a core data structure• Vocabularies are linked to each other through core fields

• Key analysis by Dr. Marcia Zeng• Outside vendor hired; funding provided• AAT released in 2014• First implementation was SKOS‐based and used numerous ontologies:

Ontologies used:Thesaurus information: SKOS, SKOSXL, ISO 25964

Common properties: Dublin Core (DC), Dublin Core Terms (DCT)

Sources and contributors: Bibliographic Ontology (BIBO), Friends of a Friend (FOAF)

Geographic information:W3C Geo Ontology (WGS)

Revision History: Provenance (PROV)

System properties: Resource Description Framework (RDF), RDF Schema (RDFS), Web Ontology Language (OWL), and XML Schema Definition (XSD)

Implementation of the conversion: RDB to RDF Mapping Language (R2RML)
