Connecting Data with Data Usage: a Graph Approach

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Feedback form is now closed.
We will investigate graph-based methods of connecting data with the uses made and the knowledge gained from those data, from science research to applications to strategic planning. We will examine the diverse capabilities enabled by connecting uses with data for a variety of stakeholders, and explore how to connect existing knowledge graphs together to scale out across the ESIP federation and related communities toward an inter-connected mega-graph.

Takeaways
  • How to connect data with the uses of that data = Documenting how data matter.
    Federating knowledge bases is daunting task but possible.
  • Connect research and data to place (but gap around using place identifiers in linked data).
    Discussion of potentially make a new cluster or using another one. Decision to recharter/repurpose/rename the data discovery cluster.
  • Sin of computer science is giving people impression that things are mostly 1 to 1 relationship, but more accurately life and universe is full of many-to-many relationships, i.e., graph databases > RDBMS
