Geography on the Web

Small data sets with largely unstructured content

Page 11: From Data Chaos to Actionable Intelligence: How the Convergence of the GeoWeb and Semantic Web is Revolutionizing the Way We Process Information Sean Gorman.

Crowdsourcing large structured data sets with quantitative capabilities

Didn’t we try this last year?

Page 13: From Data Chaos to Actionable Intelligence: How the Convergence of the GeoWeb and Semantic Web is Revolutionizing the Way We Process Information Sean Gorman.

What happens when your database reaches 1,683,185,246 features

OpenLocation

Lots of silos of GeoData how can we begin to interconnect them

Infochimps.org

Page 21: From Data Chaos to Actionable Intelligence: How the Convergence of the GeoWeb and Semantic Web is Revolutionizing the Way We Process Information Sean Gorman.

Can we federate our data

Page 22: From Data Chaos to Actionable Intelligence: How the Convergence of the GeoWeb and Semantic Web is Revolutionizing the Way We Process Information Sean Gorman.

OpenLocation

Linked repositories of data form a graph of content

Page 23: From Data Chaos to Actionable Intelligence: How the Convergence of the GeoWeb and Semantic Web is Revolutionizing the Way We Process Information Sean Gorman.

Structured Dataset “Structured Dataset “X”X”

Third Party URL “Third Party URL “Y”Y”

Node “Y” is connected to Node “X” by the link “User Action”

User adds structured dataset “X” to their 3rd Party URL string “Y”

Page 24: From Data Chaos to Actionable Intelligence: How the Convergence of the GeoWeb and Semantic Web is Revolutionizing the Way We Process Information Sean Gorman.

Structured Dataset “Structured Dataset “X”X”

Third Party URL “Third Party URL “Y”Y” Third Party URL “Third Party URL “Z”Z”

Data Set Degree

X 2

Y 1

Z 1

Creates the Ability to Intelligently Serve Content

Structured Dataset “Structured Dataset “X”X”

Third Party URL “Third Party URL “Y”Y” Third Party URL “Third Party URL “Z”Z”

User searches on a term and gets a result based on tags and full text query then weighted by degree and user ratings:

The system can now recommend data URL “Y” and “Z” as data that may be useful context for dataset “X” even though they may have no tags in common

The graph can be encapsulated in code and communicated to the outside world

1. Bring a new class of content/data to the Web

2. Intelligently mix that content with the rest of the Web

3. Enable the content to answer meaningful questions for users
