Albin, owl:sameAs would allow us to link the object in OHM space to other databases, such as DB/Wikipedia/WikiData:
Linking the OHM version of say http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_aqueduct Or linking the ww1 trenches within OHM to their Muninn equivalent. Or linking greek structures with their pelagios equivalent http://pelagios-project.blogspot.ca/ Or linking modern administrative locations with their geonames,org location. Since a LOD version of OHM will be positioned to be the equivalent to dbpedia in historical GIS terms, the use of owl:sameAs would enable people to discover non-OHM resources since it is the most obvious LOD data set to link to. -rhw > On Apr 6, 2015, at 10:58 AM, Albin Larsson <[email protected]> wrote: > > Sorry for the delay answering, I have been busy with other stuff... > > About the OGC idea I can't say more then that it would be devastating to > break the existing tools, the existing OHM instances(the rails-fork) is hard > enough to maintain. > > Rob could you explain future why owl:sameAs is needed and provide a use case? > I'm not getting the idea... > > // > Albin > > > 2015-04-02 15:55 GMT+02:00 Rob H Warren <[email protected]>: > Albin, > > I'd add owl:sameAs integration to the list of tags so that we can use OHM as > a resource discovery mechanism. -rhw > > > > On Mar 27, 2015, at 4:12 PM, [email protected] wrote: > > > > Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 13:57:36 +0100 > > From: Albin Larsson <[email protected]> > > To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > > Subject: [OHM] Linked Data > > Message-ID: > > <CAM-QGEmn+WwHCK4eee24Nn=+rPvxjFdSLqJ5=fqS33m=dw1...@mail.gmail.com> > > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > > > My thoughts on linked data in OpenHistoricalMap and how I do it: > > > > http://abbe98.github.io/blog/2015/03/26/mapping-the-past-with-linked-data-in-openhistoricalmap/ > > > > Feedback, ideas, thoughts? > > > > // > > Albin > > _______________________________________________ Historic mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/historic
