Laura,

Is the data tagged or annotated somehow to specific topics?


No. What we do have in that direction is the title of the agenda item, for 
example “French Football Federation fine” or “Statement by Mr Prodi”. Also, we 
have info on the committee that the speakers work in. E.g. a speech from 
someone in the agriculture committee is likely to be about agriculture. 
However, people can be members of multiple committees.

 - Dataset announcement -

 We are happy to announce the release of a new linked dataset: the 
 proceedings of the plenary debates of the European Parliament as Linked Open 
 Data...

 The dataset covers all plenary debates held in the European Parliament (EP) 
 between July 1999 and January 2014, and biographical information about the 
 members of parliament. It includes: the monthly sessions of the EP, the 
 agenda of debates, the spoken words and translations thereof in 21 
 languages; the speakers, their role and the country they represent; 
 membership of national parties, European parties and commissions. The data 
 is available though a SPARQL endpoint, see 
 http://linkedpolitics.ops.few.vu.nl/ for more details.

 Please note that this is a first version; we hope you will try it out and 
 send us your feedback!

 - Access to the data -
 We provide access in three ways:
 • Through a SPARQL endpoint at http://linkedpolitics.ops.few.vu.nl/sparql/
 • Using the ClioPatria web interface at http://linkedpolitics.ops.few.vu.nl/
 • By downloading data dumps. See http://linkedpolitics.ops.few.vu.nl/.


 I am on a plane so I can't check but I hope also the data is Linked Data,
 in that every URI used can be looked up directly by HTTP GET.

Query Logs Required

2014-11-12 Thread Muhammad Saleem
Dear all,

We want to study the effect of queries on SPARQL endpoints. To this end, we
are currently collecting query logs from different domains and endpoints.
Your help in this endeavour would be highly appreciated. We'll be more than
happy to provide you with the detailed results of the study if you
contribute.

Juan,

The G8 Open Data Charter Technical Annex contains Topics and Categories which 
would be a good starting point [1].

I scraped it and linked it with URN's to the US Library of Congress ID Servers. 
 I can supply that table if it would save you some time [2].
