About our workshop

From September 17-19, 2024, we attended the SEMANTICS-2024 conference in Amsterdam, where we delivered a half-day tutorial about semantics in data spaces.

The workshop provided a practical perspective on the role of semantics in data spaces, based on the current challenges we face in practice. We talked about:

  • Data spaces and the role of a vocabulary hub,
  • How to established semantic interoperability in a data sharing community setting,
  • How the bridge the gap between the two paradigms for interoperability: Linked Data based interoperability and (EDI) message based interoperability.

Moreover, we shared future challenges that are currently work in progress for the Semantic Treehouse team:

  • How to support the reuse and diversity of existing data models and formats across data spaces?
  • How to reduce the amount of manual labour in developing and mapping semantic standards?
  • How to integrate semantic web technologies into data space architectures?
  • How to improve data quality and the quality of data models?

A key highlight was the hands-on experience for the audience. Within 45 minutes, participants created their own standards using our new demo environment. Want to know more? Please get in touch!

Thanks to SEMANTICS for the opportunity to connect and learn from the community!
