HIPPOLYTOS – Intuitive, übergreifende Recherche von Umwelt- und Geodaten mittels semantischen Technologien

Abstract

Data on the environment and geographic data are often stored in databases as structured data. The thematic coverage and the number of useful analysis and visualisations are usually very broad and therefore challenging for the user. These challenges are also in the focus of the INSPIRE-directive and the SEIS-initiative. The platform disy Cadenza allows to query, analyze and visualize environmental and geographic data. Its approach -- especially the general functionality and the configurability – allows implementing large scale scenarios economically. In this contribution, a current development of the platform is presented, a so called “single-field-search” on the basis of semantic technologies. The drastically simplified view of the user as well as the architectur-extension is presented. The work is partially financed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research
