LOCAH Project and Considerations of Linked Data Approaches
- 1. UKOLN is supported by: LOCAH Project and Considerations of Linked Data Approaches 29 th March 2011 JISC Managing Research Data International Workshop, Birmingham, UK Adrian Stevenson LOCAH Project Manager
- 3. The goal of Linked Data is to enable people to share structured data on the Web as easily as they can share documents today. Bizer/Cyganiak/Heath Linked Data Tutorial, linkeddata.org
- 4. In essence, it marks a shift in thinking from publishing data in human readable HTML documents to machine readable documents. That means that machines can do a little more of the thinking work for us. http://www.linkeddatatools.com/semantic-web-basics
- 6. So what’s been happening?
- 8. Data.gov.uk Officially launched 21 st January 2010

- 10. A little bit of the techy stuff

Notas del editor
- Has been described as a ‘data commons’, or more usually a Web of Data.
- Problem for machines to extract meaning. At present, the raw data is not really available.
- Data.gov.uk Newspaper
- Principles underpinning the technology
- Step back a bit to HTML HTML web of documents doesn’t encourage re-use, reduce redundancy. Are network effects but could be much better.
- Note this is a considerable simplification of the detail in danger of misleading. Linked data exploits semantically meaningful tagging to encourage re-use, reduce redundancy etc.
- http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html
- Uses predicate logic. Goes back to Aristotle. Conceptualises things, and the relationships between things
- Copac a union catalogue Both successful JISC services running for many years now Locah is a research project – will have to see if go into service with LD interface
- In hypertext web sites it is considered generally rather bad etiquette not to link to related external material. The value of your own information is very much a function of what it links to, as well as the inherent value of the information within the web page. So it is also in the Semantic Web. Remember, this is about machines linking – machines need identifiers; humans generally know when something is a place or when it is a person. BBC + DBPedia + GeoNames + Archives Hub + Copac + VIAF = the Web as an exploratory space
- You can imagine the research benefits if these principle were applied to datasets of your own interest area. British Library example. Improves Google visibility. Already seeing traffic via data.archiveshub.ac.uk
- The aggregation and merging of the Hub data sources is enabled by the use of linked data. Linked data can also provide enrichment by linking to other data sources such as dbpedia.
- “ lower level” units interpreted in context of the higher levels of description Arguably “incomplete” without the contextual data. Relations are asserted, e.g. member-of/component-of But there is no requirement or expectation that data consumers will follow the links describing the relations
