To All, I am pleased to announce that we have released KBpedia <http://kbpedia.org/> v 2.50 with e-commerce and logistics capabilities, as well as significant other refinements. This upgrade comes from adding the entire top structure and the most common products and services of the United Nations Standard Products and Services Code. UNSPSC <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNSPSC> is a comprehensive, multi-lingual taxonomy for products and services, organized into four levels, with third-party crosswalks to economic and demographic data sources. It is a leading standard for many industrial and economic applications. UNSPSC is KBpedia's seventh core knowledge base, joining the public knowledge bases of Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia>, Wikidata <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikidata>, GeoNames <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoNames>, DBpedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBpedia>, schema.org <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema.org>, and OpenCyc <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyc> already integrated into the system. KBpedia is a knowledge graph that provides a coherent scaffolding to achieve its twin goals of data interoperability and knowledge-based artificial intelligence (KBAI <http://www.mkbergman.com/category/kbai/>). KBpedia now contains more than 58,000 reference concepts and nearly 200,000 unique mappings to its knowledge bases, enabling links to more than 40 million entities. It is written in the standard OWL 2 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Ontology_Language> semantic language from the W3C <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Wide_Web_Consortium>. KBpedia consists of 73 mostly disjoint typologies organized under an upper KBpedia Knowledge Ontology (KKO), which is designed according to the universal categories and knowledge representation insights of the great American 19th century scientist, logician, and polymath, Charles Sanders Peirce <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Sanders_Peirce>. KBpedia, KKO, and all of its mappings and files are open source under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/> license.

Thanks, Mike
