Modelado y publicación de los vocabularios controlados del proyecto UNESKOS

Mon, 02 May 2016 00:00:00 +0000

Se presentan los procesos de modelado y publicación de los vocabularios del proyecto UNESKOS aplicando tecnologías de la Web Semántica. Más específicamente, los vocabularios representados son el Tesauro de la UNESCO y la Nomenclatura de Ciencia y Tecnología. Ambos vocabularios están publicados como conjuntos de datos RDF con una estructura para facilitar su consulta y reutilización según los principios Linked Open Data. También se muestra como se ha aplicado la norma ISO-25964 para representar el tesauro de la UNESCO utilizando conjuntamente SKOS y la ontología ISO-THES. Asímismo se analizarán las soluciones tecnológicas empleadas para el proceso de publicación y consulta de ambos vocabularios  This webinar presents the modeling and publishing process of the vocabularies for the UNESKOS project by applying Semantic Web technologies. More specifically, the vocabularies represented are the UNESCO Thesaurus and the Nomenclature for fields of Science and Technology. Both vocabularies are published as RDF datasets with a structure that allows its query and reuse according to the principles of Linked Open Data. The webinar will demonstrate the application of ISO-25964 standard to represent the UNESCO thesaurus using SKOS and the ISO-THES ontology. Technological solutions used for the project will also be discussed.

SKOS in Two Parts - Part 2: Publishing SKOS concept schemes with Skosmos

Wed, 06 Apr 2016 00:00:00 +0000

In the past seven years, SKOS has become a widely recognized and used common interchange format for thesauri, classifications, and other types of vocabularies. This has opened a huge opportunity for the development of generic tools and methods that should apply to all vocabularies that can be expressed in SKOS. While expensive, proprietary or custom-developed solutions aimed at one particular thesaurus or classification have been dominant, now more and more open source tools are being created to deal with various aspects of vocabulary management.

Linked Data Fragments: Querying multiple Linked Data sources on the Web

Wed, 17 Feb 2016 00:00:00 +0000

The dream of Linked Data: if we just get our data online, the promised Semantic Web will eventually rise. Everybody will be able to query our data with minimal effort. We will be able to integrate data from multiple sources on the fly. Everything will just work and data will flow freely ever after.

Creating Content Intelligence: Harmonized Taxonomy & Metadata in the Enterprise Context

Wed, 27 Jan 2016 00:00:00 +0000

Many organizations have content dispersed across multiple independent repositories, often with a real lack of metadata consistency. The attention given to enterprise data is often not extended to unstructured content, widening the gap between the two worlds and making it near impossible to provide accurate business intelligence, good user experience, or even basic findability.
