Publishing and linking transport data on the Web
This addresses the issue of limited transport data usability for developers and users by making it interoperable, though it is incremental as it builds on existing Linked Data concepts.
The paper tackles the problem of isolated transport data by presenting a workflow for publishing and linking it on the Web, enabling the development of transport applications and integration with other datasets, as demonstrated by applying it to French datasets NEPTUNE and Passim.
Without Linked Data, transport data is limited to applications exclusively around transport. In this paper, we present a workflow for publishing and linking transport data on the Web. So we will be able to develop transport applications and to add other features which will be created from other datasets. This will be possible because transport data will be linked to these datasets. We apply this workflow to two datasets: NEPTUNE, a French standard describing a transport line, and Passim, a directory containing relevant information on transport services, in every French city.
