Today we had the opportunity to present our applied research activities in the field of semantic interoperability in data spaces to the PLDN community. PLDN is the community of linked data experts in the Netherlands. In my presentation I positioned the importance of semantics, shared ontologies and a Vocabulary Hub in realizing semantic interopability in a data space.

Position paper
To read more about the topic of semantic interoperability in data space, please take a look at our position paper The Vocabulary Hub to configure data space connectors
In this position paper we propose a wizard-like approach for data space connector configuration, where data consumers and data providers are guided through a sequence of steps to generate the specifications of their data space connectors, based on the shared vocabularies in the vocabulary hub. We illustrate this with our own implementation of a vocabulary hub, called Semantic Treehouse.
