The SPARQL Fundamentals: The Semantic Web in Action
$250.00
Dates: January 6 - February 2July 7 - August 3
Credits: 1.5 CEUs or 15 PDHs
This course will focus on the SPARQL query language (used to query RDF and Linked Data) as well as the concept of the semantic ‘triple’ and RDF triplestores (a type of database for semantic data). One of the primary goals of this course is for the student to understand how RDF and Linked Data is used, accessed, and disseminated on the web.
We will be working with local data as well as querying wikidata, dbpedia, and other publically available data sources.
SPARQL Fundamentals 2 and 3 are also available for those interested in comprehensive knowledge of the core SPARQL query language. SPARQL Fundamentals I would be a prerequisite for these courses.
Course Prerequisites: a basic knowledge of RDF is necessary, a review will be provided. For those interested in learning RDF, we recommend taking our RDF Fundamentals and Introduction to Linked Data courses before taking this class.
This course is part of the Certificate in XML and RDF-Based Systems.
