Hello,

I am interested in this work. Just trying to better understand the scope of this reference application.

My current interest is to find a suitable semantic (json-ld or jskos) REST interface for a Taxonomy. Not sure if your effort provides this.

Regards, Radu

Hi! The effort of this implementation is to provide web application snippets to access, display, and interact with taxonomies. It's part of research project http://coli-conc.gbv.de/ - see Technical Report 1 for a brief overview in 2 pages. The JSON based data format used in ng-skos is JSKOS. Any JSON-API requires such definition of a data format. JSKOS is based on JSON-LD so you get best of both worlds (RDF and plain JSON). The reason for not just taking JSON-LD only is that the same taxonomy can be expressed in different ways in JSON-LD. Our project also includes definition of a REST API for taxonomies and other knowledge organization systems: https://github.com/gbv/jskos-api Both specification and implementation, however are in a very early stage. If you need a quick solution, have a look at existing terminology server software for instance Skosmos.
