Semantic Web

I'm wondering if anyone has done any work on importing Facebook groups wholesale into Drupal Organic Groups? I know we can export all the data from a Facebook group using the Facebook API. I guess the main task is to how to map Facebook comments (with revisions?), users, events and pages to a local Drupal instance. I guess make placeholders for these Facebook objects and allow these to be acquired retrospectively? Any ideas? Any projects with similar aims?

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but do the drupal RDF* modules support having a separate RDF database like Neo4j or others?
It seems that any full-scale semantic application implemented with Drupal will very quickly grind to a halt if the data is stored in an RDBMS.
If there's been any discussion, drupalcon talks, or similar on this subject, I'd be very interested to click on that.

RDFx allows for fields to be expressed as RDFa. Sometimes RDF concepts exist in other locations, for example DBpedia, and not as part of the local taxonomies. What is the recommended way to link to these external resources? These resources do have persistent URIs, so I guess the simplest thing to do is to make the field into a link. But ideally one would prefer to get a good label to show on the HTML output rather than the link itself. RDF Proxy (http://drupal.org/project/rdfproxy) seems to be doing that but the project appears to be abandoned. Any ideas?

Dear all,

I am trying to port a bespoke system we have running to Drupal 7.

We publish stable URIs using the Cool URIs 'specification' http://www.w3.org/TR/cooluris/

An example of a URI that works on the same principle (not the system I am porting) is this:

http://data.rbge.org.uk/herb/E00421503

Call it with a browser and you get a 303 redirect to a human readable resource. Call it with curl -L and you get RDF.

You can check it on the Vapour validator

Hi all

Being a Drupal newcomer, I am working on two projects where we would like to consume defined and existing RDF-data in the search query coming out of our library catalogue (using Drupal). Our main aim is to query a RDF-container and then display a result-set of records from our catalogue. The records to be displayed from our catalogue will contain the ID of the "found" RDF-data-element.

RDF-core in Drupal7 seems to do what we want, but I need to give further specifications to several of our partners and I lack the detailed information so far.

Hi,
I am making a new site for real estate(selling/renting houses etc.)
I would like to ask your opinions/ideas what semantic technologies can I use on my site.
I also want to expose my date as open/linked data so as everyone can use them.
Any ideas?
thanks in advance

There's been lots of discussions on various approaches for serializing entities in the WSCCI group and with Drupal 8 feature freeze only a few months away, it's time to start coding. JSON-LD was chosen as a potential good candidate for serializing Drupal entities. One of the key features of JSON-LD is the ability to include a @context along with your data. This context describes the data present in the JSON document and is useful for consumers to understand how to best make use of the data.

Good morning,

I've cross-posted this to both Semantic Web and Libraries because I think there are elements that appeal to both.

I'm going to give a bit of background on the project I'm working on and hopefully I can get some confirmation as to whether or not this is the "best" way to go about doing this. This is Drupal 7, of course. So far, I've been moving in the most obvious direction and using the tools that are most readily available.
