Metadata per document1. No or little network effects2. No reuse of metadata3. Metadata resides in silos4. Data quality hard to measure5. Not machine-readable
Knowledge about metadata1. Explicit knowledge models2. Reusable and measurable3. Metadata is machine-processable4. Standards-based metadata5. Linkable metadata opens silos
Information integration: Healthdirect Australia
Over 120 information partners and sources
Great variety of category and metadata systems
One central vocabulary hub:Australian Health Thesaurus (AHT)
Single point of access incl. harmonized search facets:

Refined look & feel improves user experience and usability. Enjoy working with PoolParty!
Full-blown ontology management & semantic reasoning
From SKOS taxonomies to full-blown ontologies: PoolParty supports various levels of knowledge modeling
From Simple SKOS to large knowledge graphs
your data, e.g. Excel
your docs
Generate 1st version of SKOS taxonomy
Edit,extend & curate taxonomy
Extend schema, apply ontologies, use SKOS-XL
Link and map between taxonomies and LD graphs
- Taxonomy Editing- Collaborative workflows- Free term extraction- Tag recommender- Quality Checker
- Reuse of existing vocabularies- Corpus Analysis- Excel import- XML import- Linked data harvester
your CMS
- Reuse existing ontologies- Create custom schemes- Apply SKOS-XL- Apply ontologies on your SKOS taxonomy
- Automatic mapping between taxonomies- Linked Data frontend- Link to other LD graphs, e.g. DBpedia or Geonames
What’s next - the “Linked Data Path”
1Build capacities for internalknowledge about linked data
4 DevelopKnowledge Models
2Identify & understand strategic dimension of linked data
3Define crisp & feasible use cases
5 Put aspect of 'reusability of information' in the Centre
7 Implementation of the use cases with focus on learning curve of knowledge carrier
6Focus on central use case: integrated views on business objects
8Communicate the strategic
dimension of linked data
