Hi from HUB Ocean and the Ocean Data Platform. We are participating in the open ocean data cataloging scene, for instance through the EU ILIAD “Digital twin of the ocean” project.

Home | Iliad - Digital Twin of the Ocean (ocean-twin.eu)

In order to improve the interoperability between the myriad of ocean data portals, web services and data catalogues out there, it will be very important for the Ocean Data Platform data catalog to support technologies and concepts like RDF (Resource Description Framework), SHACL (Shapes Constraint Language) and SPARQL (RDF query language). Is this already supported by FDM or is it on the roadmap?

Hi,

Tooling to smooth importing of RDFs is on the roadmap, but it is likely that FDM will not have a 1-1 mapping to RDF so SPARQL would work directly on it. We have already done some nice work in this area that we can discuss. 

However, I’d love to sit down with you to learn more about the ontologies you want to represent in FDM. This is definitely an important topic for us.

Thanks, let’s find time in January.
