RML: A Generic Language for Integrated RDF Mappings of Heterogeneous Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Despite the significant number of existing tools, incorporating data from multiple sources and different formats into the Linked Open Data cloud remains complicated. No mapping formalisation exists to define how to map such heterogeneous sources into rdf in an integrated and interoperable fashion. This paper introduces the rml mapping language, a generic language based on an extension over rrml, the wc standard for mapping relational databases into rdf. Broadening rrml’s scope, the language becomes source-agnostic and extensible, while facilitating the definition of mappings of multiple heterogeneous sources. This leads to higher integrity within datasets and richer interlinking among resources.

Extraction and Semantic Annotation of Workshop Proceedings in HTML Using RML
Despite the significant number of existing tools, incorporating data into the Linked Open Data cloud remains complicated; hence discouraging data owners to publish their data as Linked Data. Unlocking the semantics of published data, even if they are not provided by the data owners, can contribute to surpass the barriers posed by the low availability of Linked Data and come closer to the realis...
متن کاملTest-driven Assessment of [R2]RML Mappings to Improve Dataset Quality
rdf dataset quality assessment is currently performed primarily after data is published. Incorporating its results, by applying corresponding adjustments to the dataset, happens manually and occurs rarely. In the case of (semi-)structured data (e.g., csv, xml), the root of the violations often derives from the mappings that specify how the rdf dataset will be generated. Thus, we suggest shiftin...
متن کاملExtending R2RML to a Source-independent Mapping Language for RDF
Although reaching the fifth star of the Open Data deployment scheme demands the data to be represented in RDF and linked, a generic and standard mapping procedure to deploy raw data in RDF was not established so far. Only the R2RML mapping language was standardized but its applicability is limited to mappings from relational databases to RDF. We propose the extension of R2RML to also support ma...
متن کاملLinked Sensor Data Generation using Queryable RML Mappings
As the amount of generated sensor data is increasing, semantic interoperability becomes an important aspect in order to support efficient data distribution and communication. Therefore, the integration of (sensor) data is important, as this data is coming from different data sources and might be in different formats. Furthermore, reusable and extensible methods for this integration are required...
متن کاملTranslation of Relational and Non-relational Databases into RDF with xR2RML
With the growing amount of data being continuously produced, it is crucial to come up with solutions to expose data from ever more heterogeneous databases (e.g. NoSQL systems) as linked data. In this paper we present xR2RML, a language designed to describe the mapping of various types of databases to RDF. xR2RML flexibly adapts to heterogeneous query languages and data models while remaining fr...
