Hello Dominic, thank you very much for your detailed reply which answers my questions. Reading this brought up a new question that is not directly related to CIDOCCRM: When mapping RDF vocabularies in practice, how often will I have to use rule based systems instead of reasoning because

Civic apps and Linked Data

Hello everyone, A few days ago I attended ABRELATAM'13 an unconference focused on Open Data in Latin America. I proposed a session about Open Data + Linked Data to discuss how semantics and LOD in general can help government and civi organizations. I want to share the main ideas that emerged from

Hello Alvaro, I think a big reason is the lack of data. I believe that if governmental institutions in my country would publish their data as five star data there would be a boom in development of civic apps, and in the publication of other data sets as Linked Data too. As things stand now,

Dear Alvaro, The activists and hackers are already there. But for now they have different agendas. When you talk about activists and hackers which categories in particular do you refer to? Activists dealing with human rights, environmental issues, fighting corruption, promoting freedom of

Alvaro, it's a very good question! At MIT Libraries, we're currently working on a proof of concept to model geotagged accesses to our research and how it connects with the parts of the world the research is about (to see if the people who can benefit from it are reading it, and hopefully

I would love to hear from anyone who knows of data sets that may help.  I am also, like you, curious to hear any other civic use cases for the use of this technology. Really, Sands, you Librarians are taking all the fun out of world domination :-) First, you could use

Hi Frans, I think there is a chicken-and-egg problem there. Governments won't release Linked Data since they don't see the value of doing so because nobody uses it (at least that's what employees from several government have told me). I disagree with Kinsgley in terms that Linked Data is not
