DBpedia, Linked Geodata and Geo-information Integration - SEMANTiCS Satellite event on October 6, 2020
The SEMANTiCS Onsite Conference 2020 had to be postponed till September 2021. Only pre-recorded videos and a live moderation will be shown on September 9, 2020. To bridge the gap until 2021, we took the opportunity to organize the Knowledge Graphs in Action online track as a SEMANTiCS satellite event on October 6, 2020. This new online conference is a combination of two existing events: the DBpedia Community Meeting, which is held annually as part of the SEMANTiCS, and the annual Spatial Linked Data conference organized by EuroSDR and the Platform Linked Data Netherlands. We glued it together and as a bonus, we added a track about Geo-information Integration organized by EuroSDR. As special joint sessions we will present three keynote speakers. The DBpedia Meeting is part of the conference and covers a Hackathon, a DBpedia Showcase Session and a special chapter session in which DBpedia language chapters from different parts of Europe will present the latest developments.

Session 2: VGI country presentations chair: Peter Mooney, Maynooth University Join here: https://lecture.sc.uni-leipzig.de/b/kli-9uj-qty There is an increasing use of crowdsourced geo-information (CGI) in spatial data applications by National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies (NMCAs). Applications range from using CGI for supporting the actualisation of spatial data to adding extra content, such as land use, building entrances, road barriers, sensors placed in the public space and many more. This session will host presentations from NMCAs showing the status of their CGI integration in mapping applications and processes.

|
14:00 - 15:00 |
Parallel Sessions Session 4: Transforming Linked Data into a networked data economy - DBpedia Chapter Session chair: Milan Dojchinovski, InfAI/DBpedia Association/CTU in Prague Join here: https://lecture.sc.uni-leipzig.de/b/doj-a9a-kkp 13 years ago DBpedia served as a crystallization point for the web of data, which developed into the LOD Cloud. Starting with the Dutch National Knowledge Graph, we will explore the opportunity to grow domain-specific LOD communities around DBpedia Nexuses with a scalable Global ID space. To bootstrap this process, we asked DBpedia Chapter leads and members to give an overview about the data landscape in their country, identify business opportunities and speak about important challenges, such as automated clearance of licenses.

Session 5: EuroSDR VGI data wrangling chair: Rob Lemmens, University of Twente Join here: https://lecture.sc.uni-leipzig.de/b/kli-k3n-9ta This session intends to uncover new combinations and integration of CGI data with data from NMCAs which demonstrate the added value for map creation and map usage. Data wrangling (the process of creating small reproducible data processing workflows) is deployed for this work by using and combining existing geospatial software (desktop, web and mobile). In this session the results of the data wrangling process are presented.

Session 6: Spatial Session chair: Erwin Folmer (Kadaster, University of Twente) Join here: https://lecture.sc.uni-leipzig.de/b/hol-7nj-jdc In this session we will focus on building Knowledge Graphs in the first part, and in the second part on tooling & state of the art on working with Linked Data. Part 1 – Knowledge Graphs (25 min)
