IPTC Sport Schema

Hi Public Schema/Schema.org <http://schema.org/> people, it’s been a while since I’ve participated here. I’m Paul Kelly, lead of the IPTC’s sports content group.

I’m writing to tell you about the IPTC’s ontology for representing sports competitions and results in RDF. It’s called IPTC Sport Schema and you can check it out here:

https://sportschema.org/

Here’s a diagram:

The site has samples, a SPARQL endpoint and copious documentation. There have been initiatives in the past for representing sports data on the web. Any interest still?

Apart from structuring complex competitions and athlete histories, we incorporated a slew of sports vocabs that arose from the IPTC’s SportsML standard:

I’d like to hear any thoughts people on this list might have about what we’ve done. This thing will evolve and your contributions are welcome and appreciated.

Regards,

Paul Kelly
