querying underlying ontologies structure in LOD

2009-06-14 Thread ravinder thakur
hello friends


is there a way in LOD data to query for underlying ontology structure ?


eg. say i want to find some information about population of australia from
LOD data. i can figure out that australia is a country by many different
means but before resolving this query i would like to know from LOD if a
country does have population property/predicate or not. this is to filter
out queries like pupulation of chairs. is there a way in LOD to query if
the countries ( or its class type) has population attribute before moving
ahead to find the answer to query ?



thanks
ravinder


PingTheSemanticWeb and Sitemaps

2009-06-14 Thread Martin Hepp (UniBW)

Dear all:

I am sure you all agree that PingTheSemanticWeb is a key service for 
many of our applications. Unfortunately, it does currently not support 
the bulk notification for datasets for which a semantic sitemap is 
available.


Since some of you maybe facing the same problem, I just put a short 
Python script on-line at


http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/PTSW4Sitemaps

which you can use to notify PingTheSemanticWeb of multiple files using a 
given semantic sitemap.

Martin

Ravinder,

Using LOD Cloud Cache instance at: http://lod.openlinksw.com I was 
able to use pattern: Australia Population, to produce: 
http://lod.openlinksw.com/fct/facet.vsp?cmd=loadfsq_id=3032  (I just 
use Type and Property filtering on the initial results). You will 
notice there are properties from DBpedia and Geonames data spaces 
associated with the pattern :-)

Wow! Thank you, I'm reallly speechless. Best birthday present ever :)

 We should be able to do that pretty easily, shouldn't we?
 So I went and looked in the reference section of Project Gutenberg, and
 chose a book
 (A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature by John W. Cousin).
 However, several hours later, I am not pleased with the result, but really
 need to get back to my marking (yes, it was a bit of a displacement activity
 :-) ), and it may be enough for someone else to polish.
 Anyway, Happy Birthday!, a brand new present:

RE: BBC, Ordnance Survey linked data mesh-up (uses sameas.org)

2009-06-14 Thread John Goodwin



Kingsley Idehen wrote:

 Pretty cool!

Thanks :)

 I would suggest following (one of options):

 1. Use link/ to expose the URIs for Bedford, Birmingham etc..
 2. RDFa in the HTML instead of link/ re. URI exposure
 3. Atom/RSS feed that exposes URIs for each place or URIs for RDF docs 
 (info. resources) that contain Metadata describing the places
 4. Content Negotiation (should you have deployment server privileges).

Right I'm with you. To make it a meshup I basically need to make an RDF 
representation of the info. I'm displaying in my mashup. I'd probably go for 
option 4 to do this. 

 Another nice thing about your demo is that is is gound zero for 
 distinguishing between a Meshup and Mashup. If the routes to data 
 source URIs aren't explicitly exposed or discernable by the 
 representation used for the presentation, then we have a Mashup :-)

Oh no so I just have a mash up? :( And I was being so smug in my blog title ;) 
But yes I see what you're saying about the subtle difference. 

regards,

John

Many thanks.
I hadn't got round to it :-)
Added it to our swse and sindice auto-submits.
So now it is grinding through the 4017 rdf files from the 49 rkb sitemaps.
Very helpful indeed.
