We present OpenBiodiv - an implementation of the Open Biodiversity Knowledge Management System.
The need for an integrated information system serving the needs of the biodiversity community can be dated at least as far back as the sanctioning of the Bouchout declaration in 2007. The Bouchout declaration proposes to make biodiversity knowledge freely available as Linked Open Data (LOD)*
OpenBiodiv has several components:
Linked Open Data, R package, RDF, SPARQL, Biodiversity Knowledge Graph, Semantic web, Semantic publishing, inference, Artificial Intelligence, Text Mining
Viktor Senderov and Teodor Georgiev
LOD - Linked Open Data, the concept of interlinking data on the web introduced by Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the Web
RDF - Resource Description Framework, a simple semantic format of knowledge representation inspired from linguistics
