Open Session 16-8-21

  • New data model checker
    • Now also reports what properties are already being used in other data models and their definitions
  • Slack channel. https://smart-data-models.slack.com
  • In progress
      1. Work with frictionless data accepted by authors
      2. Working regarding the adoption of Energy data models
      3. DDI-CDI integration with NGSI-LD and smart data model

 

New features in the check of new data models

Now it is possible to check if the defined properties of a new model have already been used in other models.

Thus there are two new sections in the check of the data model:

  • alreadyUsedproperties
  • availableProperties

New Subject Frictionless Data

Frictionless data is a data format for sharing information.

This is the format used by the openSDG tool

for reporting indicators related to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations.

This subject, datamodel.FrictionlessData will map this standard allowing its use in the NGSI platforms like the FIWARE platform.

Integration with SDG is one of our public pending tasks.

Open session will be retaken on August 16th

Just a minor announcement about Open sessions. They will be retaken on the 16th.

You can suggest topics for the sessions. Domain-specific (e.g. health, environment, robotics, etc), subject (e.g. DCAT-AP, TouristDestinations, urban mobility, etc), or standardizations that should be mapped into the smart data models (e.g. SDG, DLT, ROS, cityGML, etc) or another topic. You could also present your presentation/questions during the session if you wish. We would appreciate you to mention why this suggested topic is relevant.

Updated the learning zone with new videos

There is a new section in the Learning zone (4th option from the left in the upper menu).

The three new videos explain how to create data models without much technical knowledge thanks to the text editor online.

Three videos to create your first data model

These 3 videos are explaining to you how to use the online editor to create a new data model.

Are the videos useful?

    Useful (***** the best, * the worst)

    DistributionDCAT-AP in the DCAT-AP subject

    DCAT-AP is the standard for the publication of information in open data portals in the EU and other countries. Based on the 2.o.1 version these data models are mapping these two classes agent into Agent and Dataset.

    In the subject datamodel.DCAT-AP there are one data model, DistributionDCAT-AP for describing these classes,

    • DistributionDCAT-AP is a distribution belonging to a dataset according to the DCAT-AP standard 2.0.1.
