Dataset and Code for "The Geography of Evolving Concepts: Quantifying Spatial, Temporal, and Semantic Consequences of Ontology Changes"
Abstract
This repository includes the data and code necessary to reproduce the results presented in the paper “The Geography of Evolving Concepts: Quantifying Spatial, Temporal, and Semantic Consequences of Ontology Changes”. The .geojson files contain the geographic features used in the experiments, sourced from Marine Regions and Global Islands Dataset.zones_ontology. ttl contains all RDF statements used to evaluate the impact of the maritime zone redefinition.island_ontology_sr.ttl contains all RDF statements used to evaluate the classification challenge between islands and rocks.sample_queries.ipynb provides all sample SPARQL queries and their results as presented in the paper.
