GeoKnow Achievements - Linked Data Stack

Many SW tools support one ormore life-cycle stages

Linked Data Stack(http://stack.linkeddata.org)provides a consolidated repositoryof such tools

Each tool is a Debian package

Lightweight integration betweentools via common vocabularies andstandards, e.g. (Geo)SPARQL

Developed by LOD2 and GeoKnow
