Linked Open Data Working Group: Bring your own federated queries

In the last meeting of the Linked Open Data Working Group, Torsten Schrade and Lozana Rossenova presented some sophisticaed federated queries (Sparql queries that query data from multiple sources at once). As a followup, in our next meeting, we will hold a "Bring your own queries" session where everyone that is interested can bring their own federated queries that they are working on and we will look at them together and exchange some tips and tricks. To start us off, I will give a short presentation on potential data sources within NFDI4Culture and give a step by step tutorial on how to build a federated query, so feel free to come even if you have never tried your hand at these queries. People without Sparql experience are also welcome to come in with their ideas and use cases for querying data from multiple different sources within NFDI4Culture.

We are looking forward to a fruitful discussion! The meeting will take place on Tuesday, 8th April at 3pm on Zoom. Contact Lucia Sohmen (lucia.sohmen@tib.eu) if you would like to join.
