The Web of Data
The evolution from a Web of linked documents to a web of linked dataThe Web as a huge decentralized database (knowledge base) of machine-accessible data
Web of documents... Web of linked data...
![Page 6: Introduction to linked data](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021506/58832a911a28abe2758b7401/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The evolution of the web
• The Web started as a collection of documents published online – accessible at Web location identified by a URL.
• These documents often contain data about real-world resources which is mainly human-readable and cannot be understood by machines.
• The Web of Data is about enabling the access to this data, by making it available in machine-readable formats and connecting it using Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs), thus enabling people and machines to collect the data, and put it together to do all kinds of things with it (permitted by the licence).
Machine-readable data (or metadata) is data in a format that can be interpreted by a computer.
2 types of machine-readable data:
• human-readable data that is marked up so that it can also be understood by computers, e.g. microformats, RDFa;
• data formats intended principally for computers, e.g. RDF , X M L and JSON.

Linked Data and the ‘Web of Data‘● Term refers to an idea originally from Tim Berners-Lee
(Tim Berners-Lee, Linked Data, 2006, http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html)
● Set of best practices for publication and linking of structured data on the web
● Basic assumption: The value of data on the web increases when they are connected to other data sources
M.Hausenblas, Quick Linked Data Introduction, http://www.slideshare.net/mediasemanticweb/quick-linked-data-introduction
The Semantic Web isn't just about putting data on the web. It is about making links, so that a person or machine can explore the web of data. With linked data, when you have some of it, you can find other, related, data.
![Page 8: Introduction to linked data](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021506/58832a911a28abe2758b7401/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Defining linked data
“Linked data is a set of design principles for sharing machine-readable data on the Web for use by public administrations, business and citizens.”EC ISA Case Study: How Linked Data is transforming eGovernment
![Page 9: Introduction to linked data](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021506/58832a911a28abe2758b7401/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Linked Data Principles1. Use URIs as names for things.
2. Use HTTP URIs, so that people can look up those names.
3. When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information, using the standards (RDF, SPARQL)
4. Include links to other URIs, so that they can discover more things.

How to get Data from the Web?● Data can only be found on the Web, if it is available at some website

Browser
Web Server

How to get Data from the Web?● There is a number of different (proprietary) Web APIs, data exchange
formats and Mashups on top of that

● Apply Semantic Web technologies○ to publish (structured) data on the web○ to draw connections from one data source to data from other data sources

Linked Data Principles (1/4)1. Use URIs as names for things.
○ URIs do not only identify documents but also arbitrary objects of the real world as well as abstract concepts

Linked Data Principles (2/4)2. Use HTTP URIs, so that people can look up those names.
○ HTTP URIs (URLs) as globally unique names enable dereferencing of associated information in the Web
○ via http Content Negotiation machine and humans can access the resource identified by the URI

DereferencableEvery term in a LOD sourcemust be accessible via its URIthrough an HTTP GET. Oncewe access the URI we foundthe definition of the term.

Linked Data Principles (3/4)
3. When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information, using thestandards (RDF, SPARQL)
○ RDF as universal data model for publishing structured data on the Web○ Make all URIs in the RDF graph dereferenceable○ Avoid RDF constructs that cause problems in Linked Data context
■ RDF Reification■ RDF Collections und Containers■ unnamed Blank Nodes
![Page 19: Introduction to linked data](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021506/58832a911a28abe2758b7401/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Linked Data Principles (4/4)4. Include links to other URIs, so that they can discover more things.
○ Link RDF references among data between different data sources:
○ owl:sameAs –create a link between individuals
○ rdfs:seeAlso – states that a resource may provide additional information
○ Relationship LinksLinks to external LOD Entitites related with the original entity
○ Identity LinksLinks to external LOD Entities referring to the same object or concept
○ Vocabulary LinksLinks to definitions of the original entity
![Page 20: Introduction to linked data](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021506/58832a911a28abe2758b7401/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Advantages of Linked Open Data vs. APIs○ Simple and generic API for various heterogeneous data sources
enables simple reuse and data sharing among applications
○ RDF Data model guarantees (simple) extensibility
○ Transport via http, standard Port 80, prevents firewall adaption
○ Ontologies enable meaningful connections between data sources
○ Reasoning over Linked Data enables to generate new knowledge,i.e. inference from implicit to explicit knowledge

Query language designed to use a syntax similar to SQL for retrieving data from relational databases.Different query forms:
• SELECT returns variables and their bindings directly.• CONSTRUCT returns a single RDF graph specified by a graph template.• ASK test whether or not a query pattern has a solution. Returns yes/no.• DESCRIBE returns a single RDF graph containing RDF data about resources.
SPARQL – * Protocol and RDF Query Language

SQL versus SPARQL
SQL SPARQL
Based on relations (tables). Based on labelled directed graphs.
The relations (tables) to be matched over should be indicated.
Assumes a default graph. (The FROM clause populates this with specific identifiedsubgraphs).
(Retrieval) queries produce a relation from a relation.
SPARQL SELECT queries produce a relation from a graph. CONSTRUCT queries (considered later) produce a graph from a graph.

Open data
Data can be published andbe publicly available underan open licence withoutlinking to other datasources.
Linked data
Data can be linked to URIs from other data sources, using open standards such as RDF without being publicly available under an open licence.
“Open data is data that can be freely used, reused and redistributed by anyone – subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and sharealike.”- OpenDefinition.org

• Flexible data integration: LOGD facilitates data integration and enables the interconnection of previously disparate government datasets.
• Increase in data quality: The increased (re)use of LOGD triggers a growingdemand to improve data quality. Through crowd-sourcing and self-servicemechanisms, errors are progressively corrected.
• New services: The availability of LOGD gives rise to new services offered by the public and/or private sector.
• Cost reduction: The reuse of LOGD in e-Government applications leads to considerable cost reductions.

Conclusion
• Linked data is a set of design principles for sharing machine-readable data on the Web.
• Linked data and open data are not the same.• URIs, RDF and SPARQL form the foundational layer for Linked data.• Linked data offers a number of advantages for:
• Data integration with small impact on legacy systems;• Enables for semantic interoperability;• Enables creativity and innovation through context and knowledge- creation.
