Simple but useful programs to interact with a broker in PHP

We have released two very simple programs to create an entity in a context broker and for removing an entity based on its id.

Although this is pretty straight forward, being coded in PHP allows you to integrate with, in example, in a WordPress site.

In fact these programs are working in the test Orion-LD broker option, located here at home -> tools -> test Orion-LD broker

The source code is available at the utils directory and the  data-models umbrella repository

create_broker_entity.php

remove_broker_entity.php

Test an Orion-LD broker populated with the SDM examples

In the tools menu there is a new option “Test Orion-LD broker“.
In this address https://smartdatamodels:1026 there is an Orion-LD Broker installed open for testing purposes. You can check

It is wiped out every hour, on minute 27, and then repopulated with some hundreds of examples (most of the current examples in data models).

Some examples of queries:

Distribution and Catalogue from STAT-DCAT-AP new data models published

The mapping of the STAT-DCAT-AP 1.0.1 ha been extended with the mapping of two new classes Distribution and Catalogue in the subject (subject is a group of data models).

Thanks to the collaboration with the project INTERSTAT these two models has been mapped.

  • Catalogue. Catalogue of datasets compliant with STAT-DCAT-AP 1.0.1 specification.
  • Distribution. This is a distribution belonging to a dataset according to the STAT-DCAT-AP standard 1.0.1

Their terms are already available in the @context of the subject.

FIWARE summit: Presentation on SALTED project. Data enrichment.

Here there are the slides of the SALTED project presented at the session on SDM during past FIWARE summit held at Vienna.

It deals with data enrichment and how to merge heterogeneous data sources.

In these links you can find the two presentations of the training camp held during past week FIWARE summit.

New data model DataServiceRun. Candidate for extending DCAT-AP

The new data model, DataServiceRun, is included into the Smart Data Models’ subject DCAT-AP. Initially this subject maps all the contents of the standard DCAT-AP 2.0.1 but also, aligned with the agile standardization philosophy of the initiative, it extends exiting data models and hopefully would be submitted to the original standardization group for its adoption.

Also the data model DataService has also been extended with 3 additional attributes.

DataServiceRun. A representation of one specific run of a data service (e.g. DataService).

New forms for joining SDM community

The last option of the menu, now include the forms to join the SDM community in the different roles:

Board Member: Organization managing the SDM together with the existing members FIAWRE, TMForum, IUDX and OASC

Contributor: People who bring new / update data models

Adopter: Organization or project using some of the data models

User: People willing to be informed about the updates on the Smart Data Models initiative

Subject Saref for systems and 3 DM, Connection, ConnectionPoint and System

The new subject datamodel.S4SYST is mapping the data models from SAREF for systems 1.1.2.

Thanks to the contributors Grzegorz Wiszniewski and Jakob Bjørnskov t the project Twin4Build – A holistic Digital Twin platform for decision-making support over the whole building life cycle.

  • Connection. The class of connections between systems. This class qualifies property s4syst:connectedTo. A connection describes potential interactions between systems. Any two connected systems are connected through a connection. A connection can connect more than two systems at the same time.

  • ConnectionPoint. The class of connection points of systems, at which they may be connected to other systems. This class qualifies properties s4syst:connectsSystem and s4syst:connectedThrough. A connection point belongs to exactly one system. Any system connected through a connection is connected at one of its connection points to the connection. The system of a connection point that is connected through a connection is itself connected through the connection.

  • System. The class of systems, i.e., systems virtually isolated from the environment, whose behaviour and interactions with the environment are modeled. Systems can be connected to other systems. Connected systems interact in some ways. Systems can also have subsystems. Properties of subsystems somehow contribute to the properties of the supersystem.
