AW: Question: What is Best Practice for a Catalog of ConceptScheme mapping

Hi Christophe,

The idea of generating CKAN updates automatically sounds great. Do you already have something in place for this?

Cheers, Joachim

Dear Johan,

Thanks a lot for opening this topic!

My current development in ASKOSI.org is to represent usage statistics for relations at different levels using the VoID vocabulary.
The Linkset can organize publication about how many relations exists between Datasets globally and also for individual concepts.
These Datasets can be ConceptSchemes but also any other Database indexed with Concepts from a SKOS ConceptScheme.

I just mean that you can use Linkset for other properties than SKOS mappings and for other targets than SKOS ConceptSchemes.

One good proof of concept would be to be able to generate automatically CKAN statements for a given vocabulary.
For instance:
http://www.askosi.org/jita/void.rdf

(remains to be fully automated and improved!)

Have a nice week!

Christophe

Hi,

Good Concept Scheme mappings are valuable assets that may be put in a linked data catalog.
What is the best practice to do this?

I have considered VoID (http://vocab.deri.ie/void) as one of the vocabularies allowing to express the relationship(s) between the mapped concept schemes and the used mapping property.
In the illustration below
- The mapping is a Linkset (and a dataset) http://myDScatalog/ConceptSchemeMapping/AgroVoc-EuroVoc

- The linkset characterized by the linking properties (linkPredicate) skos:exactMatch and skos:closeMatch.
- The mapped skos:ConceptScheme are detailed by datasets in my Dataset catalog.
- The dataset description can use (multiple) void:vocabulary properties to indicate the dataset can be processed using any of the following RDF schema
   - http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core

   - http://www.w3.org/2008/05/skos-xl

   - http://eurovoc.europa.eu/schema

- The linkset identifies the mapped dataset using void:subjectsTarget and the void:objectsTarget
   (though the distinction between source and subject is less relevant in the given example – because the link predicates listed are symmetric)
