LOD Infrastructure

In order to maximize interoperability and re-use, both DDI CVs and XKOS should be available as machine-actionable RDF data.  As at September 2021, the XKOS ontology is already serialized as valid RDF data but is not hosted anywhere.   By contrast, DDI CVs are hosted by CESSDA on Google Cloud at https://vocabularies.cessda.eu/ but are not (yet) available as valid RDF data.

This work is moving forward with the support of the UKDA (Darren Bell) and GESIS (Oliver Hopt) and can be tracked from this page. PROGRESS TRACKING on LOD Infrastructure.
