This presentation explores role of geospatial in the emerging semantic web and implications for the geospatial community, drawing on experiences in the ANZLIC Foundation Spatial Data Framework (FSDF) initiative to illustrate key issues. Beyond the geospatial community, geospatial data is used to organise, integrate, and analyse vast amounts of data related to places. However, the way in which geospatial data is currently delivered hampers efforts to ‘geospatially enable’ these communities. Linked Data uses hypertext linking to support navigation to datasets on the web. The Semantic Web adds a connected web of statements about people, dates, things and places, with formal structure and semantics. This holds great promise to enable users to locate and query linked geospatial and other data to generate insights and knowledge. The Semantic Web requires well-structured, semantically explicit information. Standard information modelling techniques together with new geospatial vocabularies, such as GeoSPARQL and LOCN provide a means to encode and deliver geospatial data for the Semantic Web. This presentation highlights innovative information modelling techniques used in the FSDF to develop geospatial products. It will also highlight key innovations in these products including, explicit encoding of topology to support spatial queries outside of standard GIS applications and feature identifiers that enables reliable linking of information across the web.

- Lead a research team in systems interoperability Focus on systems of sysetms inteoperability Everything happens somwehere From traditional SDI to spatial linke ddata web bridge silos betweens spaital and broader world smarter suites of info products Infrastrcuture
- Where do we want to be Change - significant changes in geospatial community over the last decade. Recognition of value of geospatial - Increasing demand for and recognition of value of geospatial amongst decision-makers Everything happens somewhere Smart phone huge volumes of information being generated - big data challenges Staggering volumes information that are explicitly geospatial have coordinates or can be geo-located Internet of things - sensor networks static and dynamic and tracking devices internet of things preparing information about what is happening in particular place Web the key delivery platform and given vast volumes of data being generated we need to be able to link information reliably on the web to distil some meaning out of this information tsunami Out role in this production of Australia geographic entities in the web of linked data Foundation – spatial linked to statistical information Authoritative – lesson learned from UK OS and OSM spawned by access issues for official government data A key is to be able to reliably reference objects – enables linking Stable and actionable Direct access – individual features not only datasets - information more readily accessible in ways that make sense to users – beyond spatial Spatial information delivery if not an end in and of itself . SDI portals need to be more like iTunes - - Listen to individual tracks, try/buy, recommendations download , licencing Geospatial portal should enable these kind of richer interactions not just view online
- Large scale complex interwoven challenges Multiple domains, organisations, scientific disciplines, perspectives Multiple information sources - different scales, sources, formats, semantics, quality etc Granularity Rapid information integration from multiple sources Need better integration of spatial + statistical /observations Integration is inefficient, time consuming & expensive Everything somewhere how do we refer to places – spatial identifiers ‘everything happens somewhere’ – It is said that 80% of gov data has spatial dimension. Geography is a key mechanism for integrating, analysis and interpretation of information from different systems. Highly spatially variable phenomena- need to tie information to places Idea dimesnion for integration of infromaiotn
- Heavy reliance on geometry – primary lens through which we view spatial information Geometry plus attributes
- Dumb identifiers used in system context – not
- Multiple identities and a disconnect between spatial and statistics
- From supply perspective difficult to relibaly encoding topology
- Because diferent sources scales etc etc
- In Victoria
- FSDF common model Thematic Cocneptual Model Product models App schemas
- DPS – delivery content and structure of product DQ, delivery formats, maintenance etc Analysis of use cases indicated similar patterns find something, find how it relatees to something else, get data for it

- The gazetteer framework provides the scalable geographic dimension to the Linked Data Web. It is DNS for ‘where’ Users access - Register data source - Harvest from WFS - Model transformation – Solid Ground - Connect back to underklying data set to access geometry for underlying feature Operational provenance – where it came from but link to underlying geometry API LID Basic profile of how a URI identifier behaves in a Linked Data environment. Standardises basic object descriptions and listing of available resources. SIRF OpenSearchProfile of OpenSearch protocol supported by SIRF, describing supported content, query syntax and result formats. SIRF CrossRef API Provides a list of alternative or related identifiers to support linking SIRF references. DataNetwork APIAccess metadata about sets of spatial reference and discover related datasets (LinkedData API on VOID standard)SISSVocVocabulary service API (SIRF combines this with LID to create dereferencable terms)FeatureTypeCatalogLID based Linked Data approach to publishing data models for SIRF data content and metadata about the data SIRF indexes.
- Open search – leightweigfth
- Solution is underpinned Ability to harvest and integrate information in different structure and to common model based on model mapping Delviery of information content and models as metadata – FTC from models Tools and doco also SIRF will publish all information models (including for harvested source data) via a standardised approach based on: ISO 19109 Application Schema for conceptual modelling UML ISO19150-2 - OWL for a semantic-web ready online resource format Linked Data API for RESTful convenience methods to generate simplified views for users Linked IDentifier - LID for accessing alternative forms of model suitable for different users.
