Soren,

LGD crosslinks to DBpedia have now been added to the DBpedia 3.3 
instance. Re. SPARQL endpoint the Graph IRI: 


The complete LGD dump is currently being loading into the LOD Cloud 
Cache instance at: http://lod.openlinksw.com. The graph IRI will be the 
same as above. This instance is where you get the richest experience 
since all the data will be locally accessible while exposing a URI to 
original source via the value of @href associated with text pattern 
"xx"  in "About: xxx" re. our HTML based metadata explorer pages.


Example Metadata Explorer page; http://tr.im/tQcM

Example Query:

select * from  { 
 ?p ?o }

That might take another week or so, but for most use cases the elements 
data set should be sufficient, since it contains the most interesting 
information.
I guess the complete dataset will be a real challenge for most triple 
stores - not that they won't be able to store the data, but efficient 
querying will be very challenging and I even have some doubts that it is 
reasonable to use this data with a triple store at all. But we will try 
to make it available anyway ;-)

Very nice. How long do you think it will take for the entire dataset
to be available?

 Open streetmap are voting soon on whether to adopt the open data
commons sharealike database license. If they adopt it will you also
adopt it for this data?

[Ann] LinkedGeoData.org

2009-07-08 Thread Sören Auer

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the AKSW research group [1] I'm pleased to announce the 
first public version of the LinkedGeoData.org datasets and services.


LinkedGeoData is a comprehensive dataset derived from the OpenStreetMap 
database covering RDF descriptions of more than 350 million spatial 
features (i.e. nodes, ways, relations).


LinkedGeoData currently comprises RDF dumps, Linked Data and REST 
interfaces, links to DBpedia as well as a prototypical user interface 
for linked-geo-data browsing and authoring.

Best,

Sören Auer
