Lotico

Welcome to lotico - an open, distributed community, a Semantic Social Network that brings LOcation, TIme, COmmunity and ideas together for You and more than 79,000 members worldwide. featured event: The Many Shapes of SHACL with Holger Knublauch June 2020 lotico.com is your gateway to an open community that shares a common interest in the Semantic Web vision, a common framework for data to be shared and reused across applications, platforms and community boundaries. If you live, work or visit a location with an active community and you are interested to participate you are welcome to join. lotico develops and promotes standards, and cooperates closely with standard groups in particular with regards to Semantic Web technologies and data on the web. Events Eclipse RDF4J - Working with RDF in Java an event with Jeen Broekstra May 2020. Eclipse RDF4J is a powerful open source Java framework for processing and handling of RDF (Resource Description Framework) data. Jena-based Components for Building Semantic Web Applications The basics of RDF and SPARQL may seem simple enough at first, but once one starts to develop a prototype, one quickly stumbles upon the same recurrent problems, such as: How can performance be improved by means of query caching? How can we deal with blank nodes? How to deal with result set limits? A session with Claus Stadler April 2020. The Story of Libraries and the Semantic Web Legacy systems reach their end-of-life and libraries are loosing their traditional role of being "information gatekeepers" due to the advent of the World Wide Web. This is forcing organizations to realign their information infrastructure. Wikidata A Wikimedia Project Wikidata is a free, collaborative, multilingual, secondary database, collecting structured data to provide support for Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, the other wikis of the Wikimedia movement, and to anyone in the world. Linked Data With Ruby and RDF.rb A hands-on overview to produce, consume and work with Linked Data using RDF.rb and the programming language Ruby. Topics covered include: Understanding the RDF.rb object model, learning how to manipulate, parse and serialize RDF in popular formats such as Turtle, JSON-LD, and RDFa. Create and publish RDF using a Ruby-based web-framework such as Sinatra, storing RDF in various repository, including SQL DBs. Query local RDF repositories using the native SPARQL engine, access and update remote SPARQL endpoints using a SPARQL client. Semantics and Cultural Heritage meet-up at The British Museum ID: 206146262 URL: http://www.meetup.com/LondonSWGroup/events/206146262/ The Working Ontologist Dean Allemang and MarkLogic's Stephen Buxton one of the world's leading web ontologists helps companies to deploy Semantic Web solutions, training, keynote talks, solution planning, technology selection, data conversion, ontology architecture and modeling. And we take a look we'll look at what happens when you add Semantic Technologies RDF and SPARQL to MarkLogic. An Introduction to Linked Data by Sandro Hawke Still one of the best introductions to Linked Data and even the Semantic Web in general. If you are new to the field and interested in practical information this is a resource for you. SmartMobs with special guest Howard Rheingold This year our global Semantic Web event took place in San Francisco with special guest Howard Rheingold. Howard has a long history in online communities and has wandered the cyberspace long before we called it the web. Jena, SPARQL and TDB - RDF at scale, a conversation with Andy Seaborne A conversation with Andy Seaborne about Jena, SPARQL, TDB and RDF at scale recorded live at the Lotico Semantic Web event in San Francisco Linked Data in Watson: Using Linked Data as Evidence for Natural Language Processing The global Lotico event in Boston on November 16 with Chris Welty, kindly hosted by the Semantic Web Summit 2010. Getting started with SPARQL by Bob DuCharme Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee once said that "trying to use the Semantic Web without SPARQL is like trying to use a relational database without SQL." The W3C standard SPARQL query language is getting nearer to its 1.1 release, and more and more people are using it with free and commercial software to retrieve data from public and private sources. RuleML - Where Web Rule Research Meets Industry RuleML is an open international network of individuals and groups from both industry and academia, with shared interests in rules, and rules on the Semantic Web. Semantic Web for Java Developers - Steve Hamby Confessions of a Semantic Web evangelist Semantic Web Voices Film: Web 3.0 Kate Ray has independently produced a short story about the Semantic Web A selection of local community groups Berlin Boston Canberra Central Florida Central Maryland London Los Angeles Milano München New York Oslo Rome San Francisco Seattle Toronto Vienna Washington Zurich
