[esip-semantictech] ACDD vocab as RDF

[Mcgibbney, Lewis J (398M)]

Hi Jonathan,
Very interesting stuff. Yes, I am sure it could easily align with future discussion on advancing schema.org within the ESIP SemTech community. 
Publishing through COR is great as it offers you the ability to establish an IRI for each field in the CSV. Additionally, you can set your COR entry up such that it automatically updates whenever a new update is made to the remote resource.
Can you provide some insight into what you'll be using this for? Would be nice to get that context.
Thanks for posing Jonathan.

    Hi all,
    
    I've been observing the list for a while, but today have something to share that might be of interest to this mailing list.
    
    I'm part of a working group developing a netCDF Linked Data (netCDF-LD) standard with tools over at https://binary-array-ld.github.io/netcdf-ld/
    
    As part of this work, we've identified an opportunity for the ACDD vocabulary to be 'triplified' with stable identifiers hosted by ESIP. This would greatly help our efforts in providing a translation pathway from netCDF files (using ACDD and CF) into RDF and RDF profiles/flavours (like schema.org). This might hook into some of the discussion about schema.org and future work by ESIP Sem Web...
    
    To this end, I'd like to share some initial work to turn the ACDD convention documented at (http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Attribute_Convention_for_Data_Discovery_1-3) into CSV.
    
    This is being developed over at https://github.com/ESIPFed/acdd (see PR https://github.com/ESIPFed/acdd/pull/2).
    
    The aim is to eventually publish through the COR. I have a test repo at http://cor.esipfed.org/ont/~jyu/test-acdd .
    
    We'd appreciate any feedback or contributions to this work. An ambitious target would be to have this stabilised by Christmas :)
    
    Regards,
    Jonathan
