Linked Data  

Definition

  • Linked Data refers to data that follows a paradigm based on four rules established by Tim Berners-Lee. Linked Data is intended to be readable by both humans and machine, to be interlinked, and to be semantically queryable. It uses the RDF family of standards for data interchange (e.g., RDF/XML, RDFa, Turtle) and query (SPARQL).
