  This paper explores the inte­gra­tion of geo-spa­tial data into RDF (Resource Descrip­tion Frame­work) using Apache Jena, a pop­u­lar Java-based frame­work for build­ing Seman­tic Web appli­ca­tions. We explain the basic rep­re­sen­ta­tion of geo-spa­tial data in RDF with a focus on both the new GeoSPAR­QL 1.1 stan­dard and Apache Jena. Our inves­ti­ga­tion cov­ers advanced tech­niques, such as trans­for­ma­tion of coor­di­nate ref­er­ence sys­tems, aggre­ga­tion of geo-spa­tial data, cre­ation of new geo-objects, and sim­pli­fi­ca­tion of poly­gons. Addi­tion­al­ly, we dis­cuss the usage of the H3 Grid as a Dis­crete Glob­al Grid Sys­tem (DGGS) for geo-spa­tial con­ver­sion. Fur­ther­more, we present per­for­mance opti­mi­sa­tions spe­cif­ic to Apache Jena, includ­ing per-graph geo-index­ing, improved geo-index seri­al­iza­tion for faster start­up times, and man­u­al opti­mi­sa­tion of geo-spa­tial queries. We con­clude with a com­par­i­son of dif­fer­ent geo-func­tions and out­line future direc­tions for enhanc­ing geo-spa­tial data man­age­ment in RDF.

  This is the report of the par­tic­i­pa­tion of the RDF­Pro­cess­ing­Toolk­it (RPT) in the KGCW2024 Chal­lenge at ESWC 2024. The RPT sys­tem process­es RML spec­i­fi­ca­tions by trans­lat­ing them into a series of extend­ed SPARQL CONSTRUCT queries. The nec­es­sary SPARQL exten­sions are pro­vid­ed as plu­g­ins for the Apache Jena frame­work. This year’s chal­lenge com­pris­es a per­for­mance and a con­for­mance track. For the per­for­mance track, a homo­ge­neous envi­ron­ment was kind­ly pro­vid­ed by the work­shop orga­niz­ers in order to facil­i­tate com­pa­ra­bil­i­ty of mea­sure­ments. In this track, we main­ly adapt­ed the set­up from our last year’s par­tic­i­pa­tion. For the con­for­mance track, we updat­ed our sys­tem with sup­port for the rml-core mod­ule of the upcom­ing RML revi­sion. We also report on the issues and short­com­ings we encoun­tered as a base for future improvements.

  Approach­es for the con­struc­tion of knowl­edge graphs from het­ero­ge­neous data sources range from ad-hoc scripts to ded­i­cat­ed map­ping lan­guages. Two com­mon foun­da­tions are there­by RML and SPARQL. So far, both approach­es are treat­ed as dif­fer­ent: On the one hand there are tools specif­i­cal­ly for pro­cess­ing RML where­as on the oth­er hand there are tools that extend SPARQL in order to incor­po­rate addi­tion­al data sources. In this work, we first show how this gap can be bridged by trans­lat­ing RML to a sequence of SPARQL CONSTRUCT queries and intro­duce the nec­es­sary SPARQL exten­sions. In a sub­se­quent step, we employ tech­niques to opti­mize SPARQL query work­loads as well as indi­vid­ual query exe­cu­tion times in order to obtain an opti­mized sequence of queries with respect to the order and unique­ness of the gen­er­at­ed triples. Final­ly, we present a cor­re­spond­ing SPARQL query exe­cu­tion engine based on the Apache Spark Big Data frame­work. In our eval­u­a­tion on bench­marks we show that our approach is capa­ble of achiev­ing RML map­ping exe­cu­tion per­for­mance that sur­pass­es the cur­rent state of the art.

The advent of IoT has cre­at­ed unpar­al­leled oppor­tu­ni­ties to col­lect large amounts of data about how peo­ple use trans­porta­tion. This data could be used to ascer­tain the qual­i­ty and reach of the ser­vices offered and to inform future policy—provided cities have the capa­bil­i­ties to process, curate, inte­grate and analyse the data effec­tive­ly. At the same time, to be tru­ly ‘Smart’, cities need to ensure that the data-dri­ven deci­sions they make reflect the needs of their cit­i­zens, cre­ate feed­back loops, and widen par­tic­i­pa­tion. In this chap­ter, we intro­duce QROWD, a data inte­gra­tion and ana­lyt­ics plat­form that seam­less­ly inte­grates mul­ti­ple data sources along­side human, social and com­pu­ta­tion­al intel­li­gence to build hybrid, auto­mat­ed data-cen­tric work­flows. By doing so, QROWD appli­ca­tions can take advan­tage of the best of both worlds: the accu­ra­cy and scale of machine com­pu­ta­tion, and the skills, knowl­edge and exper­tise of peo­ple. We present the archi­tec­ture and main com­po­nents of the plat­form, as well as its usage to realise two mobil­i­ty use cas­es: esti­mat­ing the modal split, which refers to trips peo­ple take that involve more than one type of trans­port, and urban auditing.

  In the con­text of cri­sis infor­mat­ics, the inte­gra­tion and exploita­tion of high vol­umes of het­ero­ge­neous data from mul­ti­ple sources is one of the big chances as well as chal­lenges up to now. Seman­tic Web tech­nolo­gies have proven a valu­able means to inte­grate and rep­re­sent knowl­edge on the basis of domain con­cepts which improves inter­op­er­abil­i­ty and inter­pretabil­i­ty of infor­ma­tion resources and allows deriv­ing more knowl­edge via seman­tic rela­tions and rea­son­ing. In this paper, we inves­ti­gate the poten­tial of rep­re­sent­ing and pro­cess­ing geospa­tial infor­ma­tion with­in the seman­tic par­a­digm. We show, on the tech­ni­cal lev­el, how exist­ing open source means can be used and sup­ple­ment­ed as to effi­cient­ly han­dle geo­graph­ic infor­ma­tion and to con­vey exem­plary results high­ly rel­e­vant in con­text of cri­sis man­age­ment appli­ca­tions. When giv­en seman­tic resources get enriched with geospa­tial infor­ma­tion, new infor­ma­tion can be retrieved com­bin­ing the con­cepts of mul­ti-poly­gons and geo-coor­di­nates and using the pow­er of GeoSPAR­QL queries. Cus­tom SPARQL exten­sion func­tions and data types for JSON, XML and CSV as well as for dialects such as Geo­J­SON and GML allow for suc­cinct inte­gra­tion of het­ero­ge­neous data. We imple­ment­ed these fea­tures for the Apache Jena Seman­tic Web frame­work by lever­ag­ing its plu­g­in sys­tems. Fur­ther­more, sig­nif­i­cant improve­ments w.r.t.

  %X In the con­text of cri­sis infor­mat­ics, the inte­gra­tion and exploita­tion of high vol­umes of het­ero­ge­neous data from mul­ti­ple sources is one of the big chances as well as chal­lenges up to now. Seman­tic Web tech­nolo­gies have proven a valu­able means to inte­grate and rep­re­sent knowl­edge on the basis of domain con­cepts which improves inter­op­er­abil­i­ty and inter­pretabil­i­ty of infor­ma­tion resources and allows deriv­ing more knowl­edge via seman­tic rela­tions and rea­son­ing. In this paper, we inves­ti­gate the poten­tial of rep­re­sent­ing and pro­cess­ing geospa­tial infor­ma­tion with­in the seman­tic par­a­digm. We show, on the tech­ni­cal lev­el, how exist­ing open source means can be used and sup­ple­ment­ed as to effi­cient­ly han­dle geo­graph­ic infor­ma­tion and to con­vey exem­plary results high­ly rel­e­vant in con­text of cri­sis man­age­ment appli­ca­tions. When giv­en seman­tic resources get enriched with geospa­tial infor­ma­tion, new infor­ma­tion can be retrieved com­bin­ing the con­cepts of mul­ti-poly­gons and geo-coor­di­nates and using the pow­er of GeoSPAR­QL queries. Cus­tom SPARQL exten­sion func­tions and data types for JSON, XML and CSV as well as for dialects such as Geo­J­SON and GML allow for suc­cinct inte­gra­tion of het­ero­ge­neous data.

  The Linked SPARQL Queries (LSQ) datasets con­tain real-world SPARQL queries col­lect­ed from the query logs of the pub­licly avail­able SPARQL end­points. In LSQ, each SPARQL query is rep­re­sent­ed as RDF with var­i­ous struc­tur­al and data-dri­ven fea­tures attached. In this paper, we present the LSQ Java frame­work for cre­at­ing rich knowl­edge graphs from SPARQL query logs. The frame­work is able to RDFize SPARQL query logs, which are avail­able in dif­fer­ent for­mats, in a scal­able way. Fur­ther­more, the frame­work offers a set of sta­t­ic and dynam­ic enrich­ers. Sta­t­ic enrich­ers derive infor­ma­tion from the queries, such as their num­ber of basic graph pat­terns and pro­ject­ed vari­ables or even a full SPIN mod­el. Dynam­ic enrich­ment involves addi­tion­al resources. For instance, the bench­mark enrich­er exe­cutes queries against a SPARQL end­point and col­lects query exe­cu­tion times and result set sizes. This frame­work has already been used to con­vert query logs of 27 pub­lic SPARQL end­points, rep­re­sent­ing 43.95 mil­lion exe­cu­tions of 11.56 mil­lion unique SPARQL queries. The LSQ queries have been used in many use cas­es such as bench­mark­ing based on real-world SPARQL queries, SPARQL adop­tion, caching, query opti­miza­tion, use­abil­i­ty analy­sis, and meta-query­ing. Real­iza­tion of LSQ required devis­ing nov­el soft­ware com­po­nents to (a) improve scal­a­bil­i­ty of RDF data pro­cess­ing with the Apache Spark Big Data frame­work and (b) ease oper­a­tions of com­plex RDF data mod­els such as con­trolled skolem­iza­tion. Fol­low­ing the spir­it of Open­Source soft­ware devel­op­ment and the “don’t repeat your­self” (DRY) par­a­digm, the work on the LSQ frame­work also result­ed in con­tri­bu­tions to Apache Jena in order to make these improve­ments read­i­ly avail­able out­side of the LSQ context.

  With the advance­ment of Seman­tic Tech­nolo­gies, large geospa­tial data sources have been increas­ing­ly pub­lished as Linked data on the Web. The Linked­Ge­o­Da­ta project is one of the most promi­nent such projects to cre­ate a large knowl­edge graph from Open­StreetMap (OSM) with glob­al cov­er­age and inter­link­ing of oth­er data sources. In this paper, we report on the ongo­ing effort of expos­ing the rela­tion­al data­base in Linked­Ge­o­Da­ta as a SPARQL end­point using Vir­tu­al Knowl­edge Graph (VKG) tech­nol­o­gy. Specif­i­cal­ly, we present two real­iza­tions of VKGs, using the two sys­tems Spar­qli­fy and Ontop. In order to improve com­pli­ance with the OGC GeoSPAR­QL stan­dard, we have imple­ment­ed GeoSPAR­QL sup­port in Ontop v4. More­over, we have eval­u­at­ed the VKG-pow­ered Linked­Ge­o­Da­ta in the test areas of Italy and Ger­many. Our exper­i­ments demon­strate that such sys­tem sup­ports com­plex GeoSPAR­QL queries, which con­firms that query answer­ing in the VKG approach is efficient.

This frame­work intro­duces soft­ware mod­ules that trans­form large-scale RDF data into ML-ready fixed-length numer­ic fea­ture vec­tors. The devel­oped mod­ules are opti­mized to the mul­ti-modal nature of knowl­edge graphs. DistRDF2ML pro­vides aligned soft­ware design and usage prin­ci­ples as com­mon data sci­ence stacks that offer an easy-to-use pack­age for cre­at­ing machine learn­ing pipelines. The mod­ules used in the pipeline, the hyper-para­me­ters and the results are export­ed as a seman­tic struc­ture that can be used to enrich the orig­i­nal knowl­edge graph. The seman­tic rep­re­sen­ta­tion of meta­da­ta and machine learn­ing results offers the advan­tage of increas­ing the machine learn­ing pipelines’ reusabil­i­ty, explain­abil­i­ty, and repro­ducibil­i­ty. The entire frame­work of DistRDF2ML is open source, inte­grat­ed into the holis­tic SANSA stack, doc­u­ment­ed in scala-docs, and cov­ered by unit tests. DistRDF2ML demon­strates its scal­able design across dif­fer­ent pro­cess­ing pow­er con­fig­u­ra­tions and (hyper-)parameter setups with­in var­i­ous exper­i­ments. The frame­work brings the three worlds of knowl­edge graph engi­neers, dis­trib­uted com­pu­ta­tion devel­op­ers, and data sci­en­tists clos­er togeth­er and offers all of them the cre­ation of explain­able ML pipelines using a few lines of code.

These emerg­ing use cas­es often require queries con­tain­ing math­e­mat­i­cal for­mu­las such as euclid­ean dis­tances or unit con­ver­sions. Cur­rent­ly, the lat­est SPARQL stan­dard (ver­sion 1.1) only embeds basic math oper­a­tors. Thus, to address this short­com­ing, some pop­u­lar SPARQL eval­u­a­tors pro­vide built-in tools to cov­er spe­cif­ic needs; how­ev­er, such tools are not stan­dard yet. To offer users a more gener­ic solu­tion, we pro­pose and share MINDS, a trans­la­tor of math­e­mat­i­cal expres­sions into SPAR­QL-com­pli­ant bind­ings which can be under­stood by any eval­u­a­tor. MINDS there­by facil­i­tates the query design when­ev­er math­e­mat­i­cal com­pu­ta­tions are need­ed in a SPARQL query.

• Schema-agnos­tic SPAR­QL-dri­ven faceted search bench­mark gen­er­a­tionIn: Jour­nal of Web Seman­tics, p. 100614Claus Stadler, Simon Bin, Lisa Wenige, Lorenz Büh­mann and Jens Lehmann

  AbstractURLBib­TeXEnd­NoteBib­Son­o­my

  In this work, we present a schema-agnos­tic faceted brows­ing bench­mark gen­er­a­tion frame­work for RDF data and SPARQL engines. Faceted search is a tech­nique that allows nar­row­ing down sets of infor­ma­tion items by apply­ing con­straints over their prop­er­ties, where­as facets cor­re­spond to prop­er­ties of these items. While our work can be used to realise real-world faceted search user inter­faces, our focus lies on the con­struc­tion and bench­mark­ing of faceted search queries over knowl­edge graphs. The RDF mod­el exhibits sev­er­al traits that seem­ing­ly make it a nat­ur­al foun­da­tion for faceted search: all infor­ma­tion items are rep­re­sent­ed as RDF resources, prop­er­ty val­ues typ­i­cal­ly already cor­re­spond to mean­ing­ful seman­tic clas­si­fi­ca­tions, and with SPARQL there is a stan­dard lan­guage for uni­form­ly query­ing instance and schema infor­ma­tion. How­ev­er, although faceted search is ubiq­ui­tous today, it is typ­i­cal­ly not per­formed on the RDF mod­el direct­ly. Two major sources of con­cern are the com­plex­i­ty of query gen­er­a­tion and the query per­for­mance. To over­come the for­mer, our frame­work comes with an inter­me­di­ate domain-spe­cif­ic lan­guage. There­by our approach is SPAR­QL-dri­ven which means that every faceted search infor­ma­tion need is inten­sion­al­ly expressed as a sin­gle SPARQL query. In regard to the lat­ter, we inves­ti­gate the pos­si­bil­i­ties and lim­its of real-time SPAR­QL-dri­ven faceted search on con­tem­po­rary triple stores. We report on our find­ings by eval­u­at­ing sys­tems per­for­mance and cor­rect­ness char­ac­ter­is­tics when exe­cut­ing a bench­mark gen­er­at­ed using our gen­er­a­tion frame­work.

  Open Data por­tals often strug­gle to pro­vide release fea­tures (i.e., sta­ble ver­sion­ing, up-to-date down­load links, rich meta­da­ta des­critions) for their datasets. By this means, wide adop­tion of pub­licly avail­able datasets is hin­dered, since con­sum­ing appli­ca­tions can­not access fresh data sources or might break due to data qual­i­ty issues. While there exists a vari­ety of tools to effi­cient­ly con­trol release process­es in soft­ware devel­op­ment, the man­age­ment of dataset releas­es is not as clear. This paper pro­pos­es a deploy­ment pipeline for effi­cient dataset releas­es that is based on auto­mat­ed enrich­ment of DCAT/DATAID meta­da­ta and is a first step towards effi­cient deploy­ment pipelin­ing for Open Data publishing.

  Open­ly avail­able datasets orig­i­nate from dif­fer­ent data providers which range from gov­ern­ment agen­cies, over com­mer­cial enter­pris­es to com­mu­ni­ties of data enthu­si­asts. Inte­grat­ing dif­fer­ent source datasets into a sin­gle RDF graph by using ETL (Extract-Trans­form-Load) sys- tems which per­form offline trans­for­ma­tion, ontol­ogy match­ing and link- ing tech­niques usu­al­ly takes many iter­a­tions of revi­sions until the tar­get dataset is made free of the most obvi­ous map­ping, link­ing and con­sis- ten­cy errors. Since ETL sys­tems pro­duce the RDF offline, any map- ping or con­tent change requires a re-ingest of the rel­e­vant source data. When deal­ing with het­ero­ge­neous source datasets, cre­at­ing a uni­fied tar- get dataset can be a tedious under­tak­ing. There­fore the paper pro­pos­es an RDF view based inges­tion approach, which allows real-time “debug- ging” of the uni­fied dataset where map­pings and links can be changed with imme­di­ate effect. Once the uni­fied graph pass­es all data qual­i­ty tests, the RDF can be mate­ri­al­ized. This process pos­es an alter­na­tive to exist­ing ETL solutions.

  The com­bi­na­tion of the advan­tages of wide­ly used rela­tion­al data­bas­es and seman­tic tech­nolo­gies has attract­ed sig­nif­i­cant research over the past decade. In par­tic­u­lar, map­ping lan­guages for the con­ver­sion of data­bas­es to RDF knowl­edge bases have been devel­oped and stan­dard­ized in the form of R2RML. In this arti­cle, we first review those map­ping lan­guages and then devise work towards a uni­fied for­mal mod­el for them. Based on this, we present the Spar­qli­fi­ca­tion Map­ping Lan­guage (SML), which pro­vides an intu­itive way to declare map­pings based on SQL VIEWS and SPARQL con­struct queries. We show that SML has the same expres­siv­i­ty as R2RML by enu­mer­at­ing the lan­guage fea­tures and show the cor­re­spon­dences, and we out­line how one syn­tax can be con­vert­ed into the oth­er. A con­duct­ed user study for this paper jux­ta­pos­ing SML and R2RML pro­vides evi­dence that SML is a more com­pact syn­tax which is eas­i­er to under­stand and read and thus low­ers the bar­ri­er to offer SPARQL access to rela­tion­al databases.

  While sev­er­al tools for sim­pli­fy­ing the task of visu­al­iz­ing (SPARQL acces­si­ble) RDF data on the Web are avail­able today, there is a lack of cor­re­spond­ing tools for exploit­ing stan­dard HTML forms direct­ly for RDF edit­ing. The few relat­ed exist­ing sys­tems rough­ly fall in the cat­e­gories of (a) appli­ca­tions that are not aimed at being reused as com­po­nents, (b) form gen­er­a­tors, which auto­mat­i­cal­ly cre­ate forms from a giv­en schema — pos­si­bly derived from instance data — or © form tem­plate proces­sors which cre­ate forms from a man­u­al­ly cre­at­ed spec­i­fi­ca­tion. Fur­ther­more, these sys­tems usu­al­ly come with their own wid­get library, which can only be extend­ed by wrap­ping exist­ing wid­gets. In this paper, we present the Angu­lar­JS-based \emph{Rdf Edit eXten­sion} (REX) sys­tem, which facil­i­tates the enhance­ment of stan­dard HTML forms as well as many exist­ing Angu­lar­JS wid­gets with RDF edit­ing sup­port by means of a set of HTML attrib­ut­es.

  The cre­ation and the improve­ment of tools that cov­er explorato­ry and visu­al­iza­tion tasks for Linked Data were one of the major goals focused in the LOD2 project. Tools that sup­port those tasks are regard­ed as essen­tial for the Web of Data, since they can act as a user-ori­ent­ed start­ing point for data cus­tomers. Dur­ing the project, sev­er­al devel­op­ment efforts were made, whose results either facil­i­tate the explo­ration and visu­al­iza­tion direct­ly (such as OntoWi­ki, the Piv­ot Brows­er) or can be used to sup­port such tasks. In this chap­ter we present the three select­ed solu­tions rsine, Cube­Viz and Facete.

  The Finan­cial Trans­paren­cy Sys­tem (FTS) of the Euro­pean Com­mis­sion con­tains infor­ma­tion about grants for Euro­pean Union projects start­ing from 2007. It allows users to get an overview on EU fund­ing, includ­ing infor­ma­tion on ben­e­fi­cia­ries as well as the amount and type of expen­di­ture and infor­ma­tion on the respon­si­ble EU depart­ment. The orig­i­nal dataset is freely avail­able on the Euro­pean Com­mis­sion web­site, where users can query the data using an HTML form and down­load it in CSV and most recent­ly XML for­mat. In this arti­cle, we describe the trans­for­ma­tion of this data to RDF and its inter­link­ing with oth­er datasets. We show that this allows inter­est­ing queries over the data, which were very dif­fi­cult with­out this con­ver­sion. The main ben­e­fit of the dataset is an increased finan­cial trans­paren­cy of EU project fund­ing. The RDF ver­sion of the FTS dataset will become part of the EU Open Data Por­tal and even­tu­al­ly be host­ed and main­tained by the Euro­pean Union itself.

  Gov­ern­ments and pub­lic admin­is­tra­tions start­ed recent­ly to pub­lish large amounts of struc­tured data on the Web, most­ly in the form of tab­u­lar data such as CSV files or Excel sheets. Var­i­ous tools and projects have been launched aim­ing at facil­i­tat­ing the lift­ing of tab­u­lar data to reach seman­ti­cal­ly struc­tured and linked data. How­ev­er, none of these tools sup­port­ed a tru­ly incre­men­tal, pay-as-you-go data pub­li­ca­tion and map­ping strat­e­gy, which enables effort shar­ing between data own­ers, com­mu­ni­ty experts and con­sumers. In this arti­cle, we present an approach for enabling the user-dri­ven seman­tic map­ping of large amounts tab­u­lar data. We devise a sim­ple map­ping lan­guage for tab­u­lar data, which is easy to under­stand even for casu­al users, but expres­sive enough to cov­er the vast major­i­ty of poten­tial tab­u­lar map­pings use cas­es. We out­line a for­mal approach for map­ping tab­u­lar data to RDF. Default map­pings are auto­mat­i­cal­ly cre­at­ed and can be revised by the com­mu­ni­ty using a seman­tic wiki. The map­pings are exe­cut­ed using a sophis­ti­cat­ed stream­ing RDB2RDF con­ver­sion. We report about the deploy­ment of our approach at the Pan-Euro­pean data por­tal PublicData.eu, where we trans­formed and enriched almost 10,000 datasets account­ing for 7.3 bil­lion triples.

  Up to the present day much effort has been made to pub­lish gov­ern­ment data on the Web. How­ev­er, such data has been pub­lished in dif­fer­ent for­mats. For any par­tic­u­lar source and use (e.g. explo­ration, visu­al­iza­tion, inte­gra­tion) of such infor­ma­tion spe­cial appli­ca­tions have to be writ­ten. This lim­its the over­all usabil­i­ty of the infor­ma­tion pro­vid­ed and makes it dif­fcult to access infor­ma­tion resources. These lim­i­ta­tions can be over­rid­den, if the infor­ma­tion will be pro­vid­ed using a homo­ge­neous data and access mod­el com­ply­ing with the Linked Data prin­ci­ples. In this paper we show­case how raw Open Gov­ern­ment Data (OGD) from het­ero­ge­neous sources can be processed, con­vert­ed, pub­lished and used on the Web of Linked Data. In par­tic­u­lar we demon­strate our expe­ri­ence in pro­cess­ing of OGD on two use cas­es: the Dig­i­tal Agen­da Score­board and the Finan­cial Trans­paren­cy Sys­tem of the Euro­pean Commission.

  %X Up to the present day much effort has been made to pub­lish gov­ern­ment data on the Web. How­ev­er, such data has been pub­lished in dif­fer­ent for­mats. For any par­tic­u­lar source and use (e.g. explo­ration, visu­al­iza­tion, inte­gra­tion) of such infor­ma­tion spe­cial appli­ca­tions have to be writ­ten. This lim­its the over­all usabil­i­ty of the infor­ma­tion pro­vid­ed and makes it dif­fcult to access infor­ma­tion resources. These lim­i­ta­tions can be over­rid­den, if the infor­ma­tion will be pro­vid­ed using a homo­ge­neous data and access mod­el com­ply­ing with the Linked Data prin­ci­ples. In this paper we show­case how raw Open Gov­ern­ment Data (OGD) from het­ero­ge­neous sources can be processed, con­vert­ed, pub­lished and used on the Web of Linked Data. In par­tic­u­lar we demon­strate our expe­ri­ence in pro­cess­ing of OGD on two use cas­es: the Dig­i­tal Agen­da Score­board and the Finan­cial Trans­paren­cy Sys­tem of the Euro­pean Commission.

  Pur­pose — DBpe­dia extracts struc­tured infor­ma­tion from Wikipedia, inter­links it with oth­er knowl­edge bases and freely pub­lish­es the results on the Web using Linked Data and SPARQL. How­ev­er, the DBpe­dia release process is heavy-weight and releas­es are some­times based on sev­er­al months old data. DBpe­dia-Live solves this prob­lem by pro­vid­ing a live syn­chro­niza­tion method based on the update stream of Wikipedia. Design/methodology/approach — Wikipedia pro­vides DBpe­dia with a con­tin­u­ous stream of updates, i.e. a stream of recent­ly updat­ed arti­cles. DBpe­dia-Live process­es that stream on the fly to obtain RDF data and stores the extract­ed data back to DBpe­dia. DBpe­dia-Live pub­lish­es the new­ly added/deleted triples in files, in order to enable syn­chro­niza­tion between our DBpe­dia end­point and oth­er DBpe­dia mir­rors. Find­ings — Dur­ing the real­iza­tion of DBpe­dia-Live we learned, that it is cru­cial to process Wikipedia updates in a pri­or­i­ty queue. Recent­ly-updat­ed Wikipedia arti­cles should have the high­est pri­or­i­ty, over map­ping-changes and unmod­i­fied pages. An over­all find­ing is that there is a plen­ty of oppor­tu­ni­ties aris­ing from the emerg­ing Web of Data for librar­i­ans. Prac­ti­cal impli­ca­tions — DBpe­dia had and has a great effect on the Web of Data and became a crys­tal­liza­tion point for it. Many com­pa­nies and researchers use DBpe­dia and its pub­lic ser­vices to improve their appli­ca­tions and research approach­es. The DBpe­dia-Live frame­work improves DBpe­dia fur­ther by time­ly syn­chro­niz­ing it with Wikipedia, which is rel­e­vant for many use cas­es requir­ing up-to-date infor­ma­tion. Originality/value — The new DBpe­dia-Live frame­work adds new fea­tures to the old DBpe­dia-Live frame­work, e.g. abstract extrac­tion, ontol­ogy changes, and change­sets publication.

  Wikipedia is one of the largest pub­lic infor­ma­tion spaces with a huge user com­mu­ni­ty, which col­lab­o­ra­tive­ly works on the largest online ency­clo­pe­dia. Their users add or edit up to 150 thou­sand wiki pages per day. The DBpe­dia project extracts RDF from Wikipedia and inter­links it with oth­er knowl­edge bases. In the DBpe­dia live extrac­tion mode, Wikipedia edits are instant­ly processed to update infor­ma­tion in DBpe­dia. Due to the high num­ber of edits and the growth of Wikipedia, the update process has to be very effi­cient and scal­able. In this paper, we present dif­fer­ent strate­gies to tack­le this chal­leng­ing prob­lem and describe how we mod­i­fied the DBpe­dia live extrac­tion algo­rithm to work more efficiently.
