Re: [Ann] OSM Linked Geo Data extraction, browser editor
Hi Sören Have you any plans to link those data with geonames.org data? Bernard Hi all, We were working in the last weeks on bringing geo data derived from the marvelous OpenStreetMap project [1] to the data web. This work in progress is still far from being finished, however, we would like to share some first preliminary results: * A *vast amount of point-of-interest descriptions* was extracted from OSM and published as Linked Data at http://linkedgeodata.org * The *Linked Geo Data browser and editor* (available at http://linkedgeodata.org/browser) is a facet-based browser for geo content, which uses an OLAP inspired hypercube for quickly retrieving aggregated information about any user selected area on earth. Further information can be also found in our AKSW project description: http://aksw.org/Projects/LinkedGeoData Thanks go to Sebastian Dietzold, Jens Lehmann, Sebastian Hellmann, David Aumueller and other members of the AKSW team for their contributions.

Candidates are Geonames, Wiki/DBpedia, Worldfactbook, OpenResearch [1] etc. Such interlinkages fit also very well into the OSM data model (which is very close to RDF in many aspects). Basically everybody can start creating links between the data sources by either using http://LinkedGeoData.org/browser or via OSM's REST API (any other OSM editor will do as well). Right now we are busy creating an complete RDF dump and setting up the bi-directional live syncronization between LinkedGeoData.org and OSM. So feel free to create mappings and store them in OSM's DB via its API. They will then also show up automatically on LinkedGeoData.org.

That looks great. And if you wanted to do more linkage, we have put the UN/LOCODE data [1] at http://unlocode.rkbexplorer.com/ (RDF: http://unlocode.rkbexplorer.com/models/unlocode-towns.rdf http://unlocode.rkbexplorer.com/models/unlocode-countries.rdf http://unlocode.rkbexplorer.com/models/unlocode-municipalunits.rdf ) And the UK's Ordnance Survey administrative geography is at http://os.rkbexplorer.com/ (RDF: http://os.rkbexplorer.com/models/AdministrativeGeography.rdf) Best Hugh [1] http://www.unece.org/cefact/locode/ On 10/12/2008 18:25, Sören Auer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, We were working in the last weeks on bringing geo data derived from the marvelous OpenStreetMap project [1] to the data web.

Sure, the more the merrier ;-) Maybe we can have some more discussions about the conceptual differences and similarities and ultimately maybe even join efforts? Best, Sören
