Presentation: Tweet"Introducing the BBC's Linked Data Platform and APIs"
The BBC's Olympics 2012 digital services were built on a foundation of linked and statistical data, allowing iPlayer, BBC sport, mobile apps and data-enriched video feeds to be seamlessly connected around the concepts of the games: athletes, venues, sports, events and countries. The legacy of these approaches is the BBC's Linked Data Platform, a platform that places linked data at the heart of our digital services. This talk will outline how a highly-scalable RDF and SPARQL-based API was delivered, how a graph of highly-connected data can be managed effectively across a large organisation, and our plans to open up access to the BBC's data from Bitesize learning resources, to the Radio 4 archive.
