It seems http://data.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/ just got some updates... Blogged by John Goodwin here, http://johngoodwin225.wordpress.com/2010/10/25/location-location-location-%E2%80%93-exploring-ordnance-survey-linked-data-part-2/ "Ordnance Survey have now released an update to their linked data, which can be seen here. The new data now includes postcode information as well as a few changes to the administrative geography data. In this post I’ll go through what’s in the data, and give a few sample SPARQL queries." (SPARQL is an SQL-ish query language for querying databases composed of RDF statements) See also last year's http://johngoodwin225.wordpress.com/2009/10/25/location-location-location-exploring-ordnance-survey-linked-data/ Also yesterday's "So what can I do with the new Ordnance Survey Linked Data?" http://johngoodwin225.wordpress.com/2010/10/25/so-what-can-i-do-with-the-new-ordnance-survey-linked-data/ "In a previous post I wrote up some of the features of the new Ordnance Survey Linked Data. In this blog post I want to run through a concrete example of the sort of thing you can build using this linked data" The folk at Talis also have a writeup, http://blogs.talis.com/nodalities/2010/10/linked-data-coming-together.php cheers, Dan ps. I used to live http://data.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/id/7000000000016437 ... nice to have an ID for it!
