The presentation will talk about how the BBC is working to integrate data and documents across BBC domains by using Semantic Web technology, in particular Linked Data and open data sets like Geonames. The focus will be on a number of use cases from BBC Sport and News including the award winning World Cup site and the work in progress Olympics product. The talk will endeavour to show how linked data has been used by the BBC to enable ontology driven information architectures that help scale content delivery, optimise sites for search and work in a multiplatform environment.
