  • Spatial Data Infrastructures and Linked Data
    Spatial Data Infrastructures and Linked Data Carlos Granell Centre for Interactive Visualization Universitat Jaume I, Castellón, Spain Sven Schade European Commission - Joint Research Centre Institute for Environment and Sustainability, Ispra, Italy Gobe Hobona Centre for Geospatial Science University of Nottingham, Nottingham, United Kingdom ABSTRACT A Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) is a type of information infrastructure for enhancing geospatial data sharing and access. At the moment, we face the transition from the service-oriented second generation of SDI to a third generation, characterized by user-centric approaches. This new movement closes the gap between classical SDI and Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). Public use and acquisition of information provides additional challenges within and beyond the geospatial domain. Linked data has been suggested recently as a possible overall solution. This notion refers to a best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting resources in the (semantic) web. In this paper, we project the linked data approach to SDI and suggest it as a possibility to combine SDI with VGI. We advocate a Spatial Linked Data Infrastructure, which applies solutions for linked data to classical SDI standards. We detail different implementing strategies, give examples, and argue for benefits, while at the same time trying to outline possible fallbacks. We hope that this contribution will enlighten a way towards a single shared information space. 2 INTRODUCTION A Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) is a type of information infrastructure for enhancing geospatial data sharing and access. An SDI embraces a set of rules, standards, procedures, guidelines, policies, institutions, data, networks, technology and human resources for enabling and coordinating the management and exchange of geospatial data between stakeholders in the spatial data community (Nebert, 2004; Rajabifard et al., 2006; Masser, 2007).

These documents contain significant amounts of structured data, which is largely unavailable to tools and applications. When publishers can express this data more completely, and when tools can read it, a new world of user functionality becomes available, letting users transfer structured data between applications and web sites, and allowing browsing applications to improve the user experience: an event on a web page can be directly imported - 1 - How to Read this Document RDFa in XHTML: Syntax and Processing into a user’s desktop calendar; a license on a document can be detected so that users can be informed of their rights automatically; a photo’s creator, camera setting information, resolution, location and topic can be published as easily as the original photo itself, enabling structured search and sharing.

  • Where Is the Semantic Web? – an Overview of the Use of Embeddable Semantics in Austria
    Where Is The Semantic Web? – An Overview of the Use of Embeddable Semantics in Austria Wilhelm Loibl Institute for Service Marketing and Tourism Vienna University of Economics and Business, Austria [email protected] Abstract Improving the results of search engines and enabling new online applications are two of the main aims of the Semantic Web. For a machine to be able to read and interpret semantic information, this content has to be offered online first. With several technologies available the question arises which one to use. Those who want to build the software necessary to interpret the offered data have to know what information is available and in which format. In order to answer these questions, the author analysed the business websites of different Austrian industry sectors as to what semantic information is embedded. Preliminary results show that, although overall usage numbers are still small, certain differences between individual sectors exist. Keywords: semantic web, RDFa, microformats, Austria, industry sectors 1 Introduction As tourism is a very information-intense industry (Werthner & Klein, 1999), especially novel users resort to well-known generic search engines like Google to find travel related information (Mitsche, 2005). Often, these machines do not provide satisfactory search results as their algorithms match a user’s query against the (weighted) terms found in online documents (Berry and Browne, 1999). One solution to this problem lies in “Semantic Searches” (Maedche & Staab, 2002). In order for them to work, web resources must first be annotated with additional metadata describing the content (Davies, Studer & Warren., 2006). Therefore, anyone who wants to provide data online must decide on which technology to use.

  • Conceptualization and Visualization of Tagging and Folksonomies
    Conceptualization and Visualization of Tagging and Folksonomies Von der Fakultät für Ingenieurwissenschaften, Abteilung Informatik und Angewandte Kognitionswissenschaft der Universität Duisburg-Essen zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Ingenieurwissenschaften (Dr.-Ing.) genehmigte Dissertation von Steffen Lohmann aus Hamburg 1. Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Maria Paloma Díaz Pérez 2. Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Ziegler Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 27.11.2013 Hinweis: Diese Dissertation ist im Rahmen eines binationalen Promotionsverfahrens (Cotutelle) in Kooperation mit der Universidad Carlos III de Madrid entstanden. Abstract Tagging has become a popular indexing method for interactive systems in the past decade. It offers a simple yet effective way for users to organize an ever increasing amount of digital information for themselves and/or others. The linked user vocabulary resulting from tagging is known as folksonomy and provides a valuable source for the retrieval and exploration of digital resources. Although several models and representations of tagging have been proposed, there is no coherent conceptualization that provides a comprehensive and pre- cise description of the concepts and relationships in the domain. Furthermore, there is little systematic research in the area of folksonomy visualization, and so folksonomies are still mainly depicted as simple tag clouds. Both problems are related, as a well-defined conceptualization is an important prerequisite for the interoperable use and visualization of folksonomies. The thesis addresses these shortcomings by developing a coherent conceptualiza- tion of tagging and visualizations for the interactive exploration of folksonomies. It gives an overview and comparison of tagging models and defines key concepts of the domain. After a comprehensive review of existing tagging ontologies, a unified and coherent conceptualization is presented that incorporates the best parts of the reviewed ontologies.

  • HTML5 Microdata and Schema.Org
    HTML5 Microdata and Schema.org journal.code4lib.org/articles/6400 On June 2, 2011, Bing, Google, and Yahoo! announced the joint effort Schema.org. When the big search engines talk, Web site authors listen. This article is an introduction to Microdata and Schema.org. The first section describes what HTML5, Microdata and Schema.org are, and the problems they have been designed to solve. With this foundation in place section 2 provides a practical tutorial of how to use Microdata and Schema.org using a real life example from the cultural heritage sector. Along the way some tools for implementers will also be introduced. Issues with applying these technologies to cultural heritage materials will crop up along with opportunities to improve the situation. By Jason Ronallo Foundation HTML5 The HTML5 standard or (depending on who you ask) the HTML Living Standard has brought a lot of changes to Web authoring. Amongst all the buzz about HTML5 is a new semantic markup syntax called Microdata. HTML elements have semantics. For example, an ol element is an ordered list, and by default gets rendered with numbers for the list items. HTML5 provides new semantic elements like header , nav , article , aside , section and footer that allow more expressiveness for page authors. A bunch of div elements with various class names is no longer the only way to markup this content. These new HTML5 elements enable new tools and better services for the Web ecosystem. Browser plugins can more easily pull out the text of the article for a cleaner reading experience. Search engines can give more weight to the article content rather than the advertising in the sidebar.

  • Rdfa Versus Microformats: Exploring the Potential for Semantic Interoperability of Mash-Up Personal Learning Environments
    RDFa versus Microformats: Exploring the Potential for Semantic Interoperability of Mash-up Personal Learning Environments Vladimir Tomberg, Mart Laanpere Tallinn University, Narva mnt. 25, 10120 Tallinn, Estonia [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. This paper addresses the possibilities for increasing semantic interoperability of mash-up learning environments through the use of automatically processed metadata associated with both learning resources and learning process. We analyze and compare potential of two competing technologies for this purpose: microformats and RDFa. 1 Introduction Mash-up Personal Learning Environments have become a fast developing trend in the world of technology-enhanced learning, partly because of their flexibility and lightweight integration features. Although it is quite easy to aggregate the RSS feeds from the blogs of learners, it is more difficult to get an overview of course and its learning activities. A course is not just a syllabus, it also involves various dynamic processes that can be described in many aspects. The course always has certain learning goals, a schedule that consists learning activities (assignments, discussions), registered participants like teachers and students, and different types of resources. It would be useful, if we would be able to extract such information also from mash-up personal learning environments (just like it can be done in traditional Learning Management Systems) and allow exchanging it between the course participants. Today for semantic tagging of Web content in general and learning content as special case various technologies are used. But there are no tools and ways exist for semantic annotation of learning process that takes place in a distributed network of mash-up personal learning environments.

  • Standardization's All Very Well, but What About the Exabytes of Existing
    Standardization’s all very well, but what about the Exabytes of Existing Content and Learner Contributions? Felix Mödritscher 1), Victor Manuel García-Barrios 2) 1) Institute for Information Systems and New Media, Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration, Augasse 2-6, 1090 Vienna, Austria [email protected] 2) Institute for Information Systems and Computer Media, Graz University of Technology, Inffeldgasse 16c, 8010 Graz, Austria [email protected] 1. Problem Definition Standardization in the field of technology-enhanced learning focuses on structuring and aggregating assets to interoperable educational entities, like a course package. However, available standards and specifications in this area do not include an approach for addressing semantics embedded in existing content. This consideration might be useful for user-centered concepts, like learners tagging or commenting existing material, as well as for automated mechanism, like extracting relations or other meta-information automatically from the resources. In the upcoming section we indicate application areas and explain why available standards and specifications do not support these scenarios. Thereafter, we present a XML- based description language for semantics embedded in web-based content, which might be a solution for these use cases. Finally, we summarize and discuss some experiences on in- content semantics from former projects, particularly AdeLE (Adaptive e-Learning with Eye- tracking, http://adele.fh-joanneum.at) and iCamp (http://icamp.eu), and give an outlook on future work. 2. Application Areas and Shortcomings of Standards In 2004 we came in the situation that we had to cope with semantic enrichment of existing learning content, precisely to enable facilitators to tag web-based resources.
