CIARD and agINFRA - creating a global framework for information sharing in agricultural research and innovation


We will promote research for food and agriculture, including research to

adapt to, and mitigate climate change, and access to research results and

technologies at national, regional and international levels.

We will reinvigorate national research systems and will share information

and best practices. We will improve access to knowledge.

The solution: agINFRA

Produce linked open data from all datasets

Use common reference vocabularies to interlink

• Does Concept identification in unstructured texts

• Uses Agrovoc as a controlled vocabulary

• Prototype under testing with excellent results (entire repository of ICARDA indexed)

• Will produce in future Structured RDF files that can be used to link data like “open Calais”

•

AgroTagger

“Serendipity Linking”

With four predefined queries we try to find in Google further information record related:

• Search by Title, to find the full text of the document if it is available on line

• Search by Author(s)+Agrovoc keywords, to find not only information about the author of the document but also other author’s publications about the same subjects

• Search by Jounal Title

• Search by Conference
