Keywords: Linked Open Data, Linked Data Semantic Repository, SPARQL, RDF Search
The Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud today has several independent datasets including DBPedia, Freebase, and Wordnet. Imagine integrating all these datasets to create a single body of knowledge. The Linked Data Semantic Repository (LDSR) is an integrated dataset making this a reality, along the lines of David’s ideas on Linked Data in his book Pull. Now you can query data from multiple data sources semantically, rather than using keywords. Go ahead, search the LOD cloud and pull your answers using either a web interface at ldsr.ontotext.com or structure your own SPARQL query at ldsr.ontotext.com/sparql. Learn more on this capability which provides a reasonable view of the web at OntoText.com.
