Currently our data isn't publicly available - this is because our business model centres around the sale of our geospatial data. We would need a lot of further development around digital rights management issues - how it would be licensed and paid for automatically in a semantic context - before we could make it available on the semantic web. I would be interested to know if this is an issue for other users too?

I think it is well written and interesting, but since I am concerned about usage on the open web in particular, my first reaction is "where are these data? Can I query them? What are the terms and conditions for use of the data?" I don't know if it is the right forum or if it is interesting for a case study, but the developer in me would want to know right away. :-) Best, Kjetil -- Kjetil Kjernsmo Semantic Web Specialist Opera Software ASA .
