Is the LOD cloud at risk of becoming a museum for datasets? Looking ahead towards a fully collaborative and sustainable LOD cloud

Abstract: The Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud has been around since 2007. Throughout the years, this prominent depiction served as the epitome for Linked Data and acted as a starting point for many. In this article we perform a number of experiments on the dataset metadata provided by the LOD cloud, in order to understand better whether the current visualised datasets are accessible and with an open license. Furthermore, we perform quality assessment of 17 metrics over accessible datasets that are part of the LOD cloud. Th… Show more

“…The analysis of measure efficiency involved 280 datasets out of 1,163 (end of 2017). While this number seems low regarding the theoretically available number of datasets, compared to other qualitative studies on datasets from the LOD Cloud, for instance [11,12,21], it sounds reasonable and of sufficient representativeness. Unfortunately, this is the current situation and, without additionally querying SPARQLendpoints, the most that one can get from crawling the LOD Cloud.…”

“…The reasons were: (1) corrupt downloads, (2) wrong file media type statements, and (3) syntax errors or other formats than these what were expected during the transformation process. This number seems low compared to the total number of available datasets in the LOD Cloud, though it sounds reasonable compared to recent studies on the LOD Cloud [11,12,21]. Table 2 gives some descriptive statistics about the analyzed datasets.…”
