Linked Widgets

Abstract

More and more governments publish Open Government Data (OGD) for their citizens, which receives great interest; because they are not only covering many domains, but also are meaningful and trustful. Since the data are not ready to be linked to other sources, some governments have started to follow the Linked Open Data paradigm as a mean to improve data quality. However, exploiting Linked Data is still a challenging task, which requires a profound understanding of underlying datasets, as well as considerable technical expertise. In this paper, we present an approach to remove the barrier between end users and Linked Data generally, and Open Government Linked Data particularly.
