EnviLOD Workshop Announcement




How do you discover research relevant to research in environmental science? Do you think that the process could be better?

In the EnviLOD project we have been on exploring the potential  of Linked Open Data vocabularies, in the context of environmental science to improve information discovery. We have developed a new tool,  based upon input from the flooding community, which demonstrates how semantic technologies can enhance environmental information discovery. 

We are organising an EnviLOD dissemination workshop, which will provide an introduction to the EnviLOD project, present the newly developed LOD-based semantic enrichment tools and the associated semantic search interface. 

The afternoon session will have more technical and less technical break-out groups and is thus relevant to anybody with an interest in the discovery, management or use of environmental information. 

When:
  25 January 2013
  11.00 – 15.00

Where:
  The British Library Conference Centre
  96 Euston Rd, London NW1 2DB
