  • Linkedpipes DCAT-AP Viewer: a Native DCAT-AP Data Catalog⋆
    LinkedPipes DCAT-AP Viewer: A Native DCAT-AP Data Catalog? Jakub Klímek[0000−0001−7234−3051] and Petr Škoda[0000−0002−2732−9370] Charles University, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics Malostranské nám. 25, 118 00 Praha 1, Czech Republic [email protected] Abstract. In this demonstration we present LinkedPipes DCAT-AP Viewer (LP-DAV), a data catalog built to support DCAT-AP, the Eu- ropean standard for representation of metadata in data portals, and an application profile of the DCAT W3C Recommendation. We present its architecture and data loading process and on the example of the Czech National Open Data portal we show its main advantages compared to other data catalog solutions such as CKAN. These include the support for Named Authority Lists in EU Vocabularies (EU NALs), controlled vocabularies mandatory in DCAT-AP, and the support for bulk loading of DCAT-AP RDF dumps using LinkedPipes ETL. Keywords: catalog · DCAT · DCAT-AP · linked data 1 Introduction Currently, two worlds exist in the area of data catalogs on the web. In the first one there are a few well established data catalog implementations such as CKAN or DKAN, each with their data model and a JSON-based API for accessing and writing the metadata. In the second one, there is the Linked Data and RDF based DCAT W3C Recommendation [1] and its application profiles, such as the European DCAT-AP1, which are de facto standards for representation of metadata in data portals. The problem is that CKAN has been around for a while now, and is better developed, whereas DCAT is still quite new, with insufficient tooling support, nevertheless it is the standard.

The strategic initiative EnviDat highlights the importance WSL lays on Research Data Management (RDM) at the institutional level and demonstrates the commitment to accessible research data in order to advance environmental science. EnviDat focuses on registering and publishing environmental data sets and provides unified and efficient access to the WSL’s comprehensive reservoir of environmental monitoring and research data. Research data management is organized in a decentralized manner where the responsibility to curate research data remains with the experts and the original data providers. EnviDat supports data producers and data users in registration, documentation, storage, publi- cation, search and retrieval of a wide range of heterogeneous data sets from the environmental domain. Innovative features include (i) a flexible, three-layer metadata schema, (ii) an additive data discovery model that considers spatial data and (iii) a DataCRediT mechanism designed for specifying data authorship.

  • Development and Testing of Web GUI Application for the Lhcb VELO Data Quality Monitoring System
    Development and Testing of Web GUI Application for the LHCb VELO Data Quality Monitoring System by Pavlo Prykhodko Master Thesis in Information and Communication Technology Final Version University of Agder Meyrin, December 4, 2013 CERN-THESIS-2013-244 18/12/2013 Abstract A great interest of IT engineers at CERN is to simplify the access to the Data Quality Monitoring (DQM) applications that usually lay behind several layers of security firewalls. In order to make it simple and thus help to save time for the scientist who rely on this data, additional application for the Web had to be developed and tested. The goal of this thesis work was to develop such a Web DQM application for CERN. First, a Web Graphical User Interface (GUI) was developed. In parallel, an Apache server was installed and configured for testing. Moreover, software program called ROOTJS that processes and displays CERN data files on the Web was presented. Through this thesis project, new functionalities were developed to meet the requirements. Furthermore, the ROOTJS program was merged with the Web GUI application and series of tests were performed to showcase the capabilities of the application which was developed through this thesis work. Preface This thesis is the result of the Master’s Thesis IKT-590 course that fulfils the requirements of fourth semester content at the Faculty of Engineering and Science, University of Agder (UiA), Grimstad, Norway. It was written externally at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) facilities in Meyrin, Switzerland. The project was carried out in a period from March 1, 2013 to December 4, 2013 and its workload equals to 30 ECTS.

  • Towards a Harmonized Dataset Model for Open Data Portals
    HDL - Towards a Harmonized Dataset Model for Open Data Portals Ahmad Assaf1;2, Rapha¨elTroncy1 and Aline Senart2 1 EURECOM, Sophia Antipolis, France, <[email protected]> 2 SAP Labs France, <[email protected]> Abstract. The Open Data movement triggered an unprecedented amount of data published in a wide range of domains. Governments and corpo- rations around the world are encouraged to publish, share, use and in- tegrate Open Data. There are many areas where one can see the added value of Open Data, from transparency and self-empowerment to improv- ing efficiency, effectiveness and decision making. This growing amount of data requires rich metadata in order to reach its full potential. This meta- data enables dataset discovery, understanding, integration and mainte- nance. Data portals, which are considered to be datasets' access points, offer metadata represented in different and heterogenous models. In this paper, we first conduct a unique and comprehensive survey of seven meta- data models: CKAN, DKAT, Public Open Data, Socrata, VoID, DCAT and Schema.org. Next, we propose HDL, an harmonized dataset model based on this survey. We describe use cases that show the benefits of providing rich metadata to enable dataset discovery, search and spam detection. Keywords: Dataset Metadata, Dataset Profile, Dataset Model, Data Quality 1 Introduction Open data is the data that can be easily discovered, reused and redistributed by anyone. It can include anything from statistics, geographical data, meteo- rological data to digitized books from libraries. Open data should have both legal and technical dimensions. It should be placed in the public domain un- der liberal terms of use with minimal restrictions and should be available in electronic formats that are non-proprietary and machine readable.
