Talk Title

Using SHACL and RDF technologies to run an open source platform of curated, searchable imaging software

Session Overview

We will be presenting a solution to web-form based data ingestion challenge which leverages the power of RDF and SHACL. This talk will illustrate:

• How to effectively define a schema and employ it for the (semi-automatic) generation of forms.
• How these forms enable users to effortlessly generate instance data that adheres to the defined schema.
• Show process of utilizing the generated instance data against the schema to infer new triples such as a FAIR level rating for each entry.
• How throughout the architecture, SPARQL queries are used as the tools for accessing, modifying, and back-up of the graph database that underpins the website. Notably, our approach relies on the utilization of open source code and ontologies formatted in ReSpec, promoting transparency in our solution.

Target Audience

Technical practitioners, architects, anybody designing platform-like solutions for pointing to metadata about things.

Desired Feedback

Would love ideas, collaborations on fully auto-generating forms from SHACL shapes in a user friendly way, especially pythonic solutions are welcome to lower the developer barrier to including SHACL and RDF in a standard data ingestion pipeline.
