LifeWatch Italy Semantic Platform

The LifeWatch Italy Semantic Platform allows to search and access the LifeWatch Italy resources with the help of semantically enriched queries.

It is based on a main semantic model that describes different resources and their metadata, as well as meaningful links between controlled vocabularies for Biodiversity and Ecosystems domain and resources of LifeWatch Italy.

The platform is powered by a semantic search engine that can be used in two modes: simple or structured.

Structured Search
Web site
https://semantics.lifewatchitaly.eu/resource/:TabStructuredSearch
Description

It is a powerful mechanism for expressing the user’s request in an incremental way: structured search based on fundamental categories and relations.

The structured search allows users that do not know how to write SPARQL queries in order to formulate questions that are more complicated with respect to a simple text-based search.

Function
Formulate complex queries.
Operation name
SPARQL Tool
Web site
https://semantics.lifewatchitaly.eu/resource/MySystem:SparqlEndpoint
Description
It allows to access the SPARQL endpoint and formulate new queries, and view pre-formulated queries from other users. Log in is required for this functionality.
Function
SPARQL endpoint.
Operation name
Semantic Annotation
Web site
https://semanticdocs.lifewatchitaly.eu/resource/:TabPlatformAnnotation
Description

It allows to perform three types of annotations:

- Dataset Annotation: you can annotate the entire dataset;

- Raw Data Annotation: you can annotate the raw data of a dataset, and labelling the type of each column;

- Generic Annotation: you can annotate the generic data of a dataset, and labelling the type of each column.

Log in and a specific role are required for this functionality.

Function
Semantic annotation.
