Bibframe2Schema Version 2.0

Hi All,


It has been an overly long time since there was traffic on this mailing
list.


There was the global pandemic issue, which took out most of a year, which
has thankfully subsided for many although unfortunately not for all.


Then on my part, the demands of client instigated work left little time
towards making visible advances in Bibframe2Schema developments.


Fortunately, some of that client work has made significant use of the
shared Bibframe2Schema technologies and approach; to develop and regularly
update a production knowledge graph containing data from over 1.5 million
Marc records, and reconcile them with data from other sources also mapped
to Schema.org.


Although not visible over the last few months, experience with that project
has lead to enhancement of the core Bibframe2Schema SPARQL script, and its
optional supporting schemaise.py script.


Along with lots of little tweaks, significant enhancements to the
bibframe2schema.sparql
<https://github.com/RichardWallis/bibframe2schema/blob/main/query/bibframe2schema.sparql>
script include:

   - Entity creation from madsrdf topic types.
   - Mapping ComplexSubjects to schema:DefinedTerm entities with associated
   schema:about relationships.
   - Optional parsing of the components of a ComplexSubject into individual
   subject entities with associated schema:about relationships.
   - Representation of Hub entities.
   - Parsing of bflc:name00MarcKey values to create enhanced Person
   representation including sameAs relationships derived from $1 tag.


These enhancements significantly expanding the scope have been reflected in
an update to our Github repository
<https://github.com/RichardWallis/bibframe2schema> which I have labeled
V2.0.


The Bibframe2Schema.org <https://bibframe2schema.org/> site and its Comparison
Viewer <https://bibframe2schema.org/compare> function have been updated to
V2.0.


I would welcome discussion and comment on these updates.


Regards,

   Richard
