The Problems with Place
Hampshire – A confusing place
Today:
• Hampshire = The (Administrative) County of Hampshire or
The (Vernacular) County(ies) of Hampshire.
• Wikipedia is confused!
Historically:
• Southamptonshire, Hamptonshire, County of Southampton
• with or without the Isle of Wight and Bournemouth

Opening UK Public Sector Information: Ordnance
Survey and Linked Data
• At the forefront of the geospatial linked data
web in Great Britain.
• Provide a well trusted source of location
data for the linked data web.

Key Message: Mashup versus Meshup
• URIs:
� Unambiguously identify a ‘thing’ – avoid name clashes
� Can be looked up to find data on said ‘thing’
� Through the web they provide a mechanism for linking to other
datasets via http
• Linked Data Format (RDF):
� A common, simple data model to be used on the web
� To the web of data what HTML is to the web of documents

Linked Data API
• Developed by Jeni Tennison (TSO), Dave Reynolds
(Epimorphics) and Leigh Dodds (Talis)
• Not everyone wants to learn SPARQL
• Allows RESTful access to services built on top of linked
data resources, e.g.
http://os.services.tso.co.uk/geo/api/50k-gazetteer/city/Southampton

Data Enrichment
![Page 31: Location and linked data](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554acd61b4c90542708b5216/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Spatial Predicates
At small – mid scale a lot can be done using qualitative spatial data, e.g.:
• equals
• touches
• disjoint
• contains
• containedBy
• partiallyOverlaps
![Page 32: Location and linked data](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554acd61b4c90542708b5216/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Scaling Things Up
• integers
• dates
• strings
• etc…
• points
• lines
• polygons
• etc…

Future Work: Ordnance Survey

A More Vernacular Geography?
• “The General Populous are darned fools:
• They use geographical terms they can’t define.
• They mix up their attribute datasets.
• They can rarely put anything precisely on a map.”
Andy Evans (University of Leeds)

Examples
• The Highlands
• The Lake District
• Spaghetti Junction
• The City Centre, Downtown
• Southside (Glasgow)
• Southside (Edinburgh)
• Most Localities (e.g. Merchant City)
• The Stag Gates
• Foys Corner

So why do we care?
• Need from emergency services and the like
• Web search needs to be improved

Conclusions
• Location is a key information hub on the linked data web
• Linked Data will open up new opportunities
