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 for producing, consuming and working with Linked Data using the 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 Ruby-based web-frameworks such as Sinatra, storing RDF in various repository backends, including SQL DBs. Query local RDF repositories using the native SPARQL engine, access and update remote SPARQL endpoints using the SPARQL client.

Semantics and Cultural Heritage meet-up at The British Museum

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.
