Abstract

The invention discloses a method for converting CSV (Comma-Separated Values) data labeled by metadata to RDF (Resource Description Framework) data. The method comprises the following steps: reading and analyzing a CSV file, obtaining tabular data, and storing the tabular data into a memory data structure; reading and analyzing a metadata description file, obtaining metadata, and storing the metadata into the memory data structure; combining with the obtained tabular data and metadata, generating an RDF triple set, and storing the RDF triple set into the memory data structure; and outputting the generated RDF triple set as an RDF data file of a Turtle grammatical format. The method for converting the data format converts the CSV data labeled by a metadata model vocabulary defined by a W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) technical specification <Web Tubular Data and Metadata Model> into the semantically equivalent RDF data, so that a traditional software tool can be utilized to conveniently publish the RDF data obtained by conversion onto an associated data network for various semantic web applications to share, reuse and process the tubular data from the CSV file, and therefore, a great quantity of large-coverage CSV data can perform the maximum potential.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a data format conversion method in the field of data management, in particular to a conversion method from metadata marked CSV data to RDF data. Background technique [0002] The open data movements in the fields of science and e-government have resulted in a significant growth of data in comma-separated values ​​(CSV) format on the World Wide Web. CSV is a commonly used tabular data file format. Although it is simple and practical, it is difficult to express metadata or Annotations information. In view of this, the International World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)'s Data Action Program (Data Activity: http: / / www.w3.org / 2013 / data / ) recently established a working group called "CSV on the Web" (http: / / www.w3.org / 2013 / csvw / ), which aims to convert the original non-standard CSV format (see: Y. Shafranovich, Common Format and MIME Type for Comma-Separated Values ​​(CSV) Files.IETF RFC 4180, October 2005.http: / / tools.ietf.org / html / rf...
