Hackathon on "The power of Linked Data in Agriculture and Food Safety" [via BDE-Food security, sustainable agriculture and forestry, marine and maritime and inland water research, and the Bioeconomy Community Group]

For everybody interested in Hackathons & Linked Data & Agriculture and Food
Safety there is on the 18.09 during the SEMANTiCS Confference in Vienna a
Hackathon.

At the beginning of the workshop the available datasets and APIs will be
presented, followed by a brainstorming session aiming to connect these datasets
& APIs with the challenges given to them so as to come up with ideas for hacks!
The rest of the day will be devoted to work on the data and the challenges. At
the end the teams will come together and present and discuss their results in an
open and relaxed environment that will provide the opportunity for everyone to
learn from what has been achieved that day.

The framework used in the workshop will be the SemaGrow stack (see here
http://143.233.226.42:8080/SemaGrow for an online-version) that is developed in
the SemaGrow project as an answer to the integration needs (big) agricultural
data in practise. The SemaGrow stack is a distributed infrastructure layer on
top of existing data repositories and networks that supports the interoperable
and transparent application of data-intensive techniques over heterogeneous data
sources.
