There are many benefits when the inference rules are included in the knowledge graph. One benefit is the decoupling of data and application. It lowers the cost of integration and the cost of change. Another is the improved data governance.

A third one is the gain in flexibility

#RDF #SHACL #SPARQL

Reconciliation of triple stores and property graphs is an old topic and many have tried to tackle it (from every angle and tech). It's polarizing and the latest RDF-* and SPARQL-* announcements turn an already complex field into more syntax and complexity. When flexibility equals complexity it seldom leads to more adoption.

Challenges with Semantic Mappings

There are many challenges associated with the curation, publication, acquisition, and usage of semantic mappings. This post examines their philosophical, technical, and practical implications, highlights existing solutions, and describes opportunities for next steps for the community of curators, semantic engineers, software developers, and data scientists who make and use semantic mappings.

I wrote a little guide on how to import the #darwincore #RDF into #OmkeaS for my digital garden. Maybe someone of you will find it useful.

I feel like Triple Pattern Fragments are a nice sweet spot for exposing a gateway to a non-rdf api, but damn the fact that the rfc depends on hydra makes it hard to parse.

Maybe I should just sit down with both rfcs and write a summary of how to expose TPF.

Oh my God, I accidentally deleted my Mastodon account. Now I'm naturzukunft2026. What a mess – followers/following, settings, grrrrrrr.

📢 #ABECTO version 3.1.5 has been released:
🔗 https://github.com/fusion-jena/abecto/releases/tag/v3.1.5

ABECTO is an #OpenSource #CLI tool that compares #RDF graphs to spot errors 🪲 and assess completeness 📊 intended for use in #CICD pipelines.

Versions 3.1.3, 3.1.4, & 3.1.5 add rudimentary HTTP rate limit handling, some bug fixes, and (most important) a descriptive HTTP user-agent to cope with the #Wikidata query service (#WDQS) user-agent policy 🛂.
