| - | =====Publishing and Using Spatio-temporal Data on the Semantic Web===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | [[http://www.w3c.org/|RDF]] is the [[http://www.w3c.org/|W3C]] proposed framework for representing information | ||
| - | in the Web. Basically, information in RDF is represented as a set of triples of the form (subject,predicate,object). RDF syntax is based on directed labeled graphs, where URIs are used as node labels and edge labels. The [[http://linkeddata.org/|Linked Open Data]] (LOD) initiative is aimed at extending the Web by means of publishing various open datasets as RDF, setting RDF links between data items from different data sources. Many companies and government agencies are moving towards publishing data following the LOD initiative. | ||
| - | In order to do this, the original data must be transformed into Linked Open Data. Although most of these data are alphanumerical, most of the time they contained a spatial or spatio-temporal component, that must also be transformed. This can be exploited | ||
| - | by application providers, that can build attractive and useful applications, in particular, for devices like mobile phones, tablets, etc. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The goals of this thesis are: (1) study the existing proposals for mapping spatio-temporal data into LOD; (2) apply this mapping to a real-world case study (as was the case for the [[http://www.oscb.be/|Open Semantic Cloud for Brussels]] project; (3) Based on the produced mapping, and using existing applications like the [[http://linkedgeodata.org/|Linked Geo Data project]], build applications that make use of LOD for example, to find out which cultural events are taking place at a given time at a given location. | ||
