New Sections in README

We have introduced several new sections in the README.md for all the smart data models that we’ve published

These are:

  • Links to CSV extensions of example payloads
  • Links to SQL schema
  • Services we designed to help self-contribution

Such as in the data model WeatherForecast:

Hope you find it useful and feel free to make your comments on info@smartdatamodels.org.

DCAT-AP catalogue service in beta version

DCAT-AP is, possibly, the most relevant standard of a catalogue of datasets (even resources as well). A data spaces’ data models’ building block needs a semantic catalogue of resources in DCAT-AP format.

Here you have the beta version of a service providing a DCAT-AP catalogue containing all semantic resources of Smart Data Models.

You just connect to this URL and you can get it. It will be updated once a day and whenever a data model is published.

You can also reach it at home -> tools -> DCAT-AP catalog (last option)

As long as the catalogue and its structure can be enriched I’d like to hear from you any comments / additions and critics you wish / need at info@smartdatamodels.org

So you can enrich it before the official release

New Version of the Python Package pysmartdatamodels 0.6.1

There is a new version of the python package for pysmartdatamodels 0.6.1.

This python package includes all the data models and several functions to use them in your developments.

Changelog:

– Two updated functions

  • New extension for function update_broker() to allow updating nonexistent attribute into broker
  • Function validate_data_model_schema(), with wider range of validation

– Minor changes on providing links of repository, issues, updating on latest statistics, etc.

Get more details on the pypi page and feel free to try it out!

Vote for the new SQL service (Just two questions)

We are very close to launch a new service and we want to have your feedback on how to create this service.

So we made a Survey and you can help us by submitting your preference.

    This is a survey about the type of service that we want to create for the users of the Smart Data Models that generates a PostgreSQL schema SQL script.


    2. We would like to propose the following ways to interact with the service, choose one of these approaches :

    New version of the contribution manual

    The contribution manual has minor updates frequently, but now we have created a brand new version

    Restructuring the contents

    – Including explanation on how to use the test service for new data models

    – Making more understandable the contribution workflow

    Guidelines for contributing

    – The list of support channels, including the new on discord

    – Move to the annex the slides for the automatic documents generated on the publication process

    and helping to make more understandable to those users recently joining the Smart Data Models initiative.

    As always the shortcut to reach it works: https://bit.ly/contribution_manual

    But you can also find a direct link in these locations

    Upper menu -> Contribution manual (7th option)

    Main menu -> documentation -> Contribution manual (5th option in the drop down menu)

    Released the script for generating the specifications (new version)

    The new version of the script for generating the specifications has been released in the directory utils of the umbrella repository data-models.

    It allows the creation of the markdown specifications out of the json schema in multiple languages. If you have an account of DeepL API you can make the translations automatically.

    Thanks to Konstantinos Gompakis from tuc.gr for this suggestion on others.

    EdiCodeco new data model in the subject MarineTransport

    There is a new data model EdiCodeco in the subject MarineTransport

    Thanks to the project i4trust and the experiment SmartEDIPort with the collaboration of Huelva port’s  authority in Spain and the rest of the consortium

    • EdiCodeco. A message by which a terminal, depot, etc. confirms that the containers specified have been delivered or picked up by the inland carrier (road, rail or barge). This message can also be used to report internal terminal container movements (excluding loading and discharging the vessel) and to report the change in status of container(s) without those containers having physically been moved.

    Extension of the Smart Data Models

    Hopefully you have unnoticed about several structural changes this weekend that has happen at SDM.

    Database of attributes,

    Now there are several additional information included.

    — A unique id for every attribute of a version of a data model (i.e.

    — The link to the parent’s attribute (whenever there is a parent) context link (i.e. https://smartdatamodels.org/address)

    — The unique id of the parent attribute (whenever there is a parent) (i.e.

    — The @context link of the attributes pointing to an existing web page with some details about the attribute (i.e. https://smartdatamodels.org/postOfficeBoxNumber)

    Specifications

    Now the second level of attributes is available in the specification document for all the languages (i.e. https://github.com/smart-data-models/dataModel.User/blob/master/Activity/doc/spec.md)

    Context file

    Now the second and subsequent levels of the attributes have URI entries in the @context included in the file context.jsonld file in every subject (i.e. https://github.com/smart-data-models/dataModel.Environment/blob/master/context.jsonld)

    The URI of the data models points to a existing web page (i.e. https://smartdatamodels.org/dataModel.Environment/ambientNoiseTSA)

    Besides this we welcome a new member of the SDM team, Rihab Feki.
