Data becomes more useful as it becomes more and more standardized. Various sectors and domains already use a certain degree of standardization. It becomes more complicated when multiple standards use (almost the same) types of fields but describe them differently.

 

For example, the name road, street or road section can mean the same thing, but these definitions are used in different places. In such a case it is valuable to link different standards to one data model. These so-called semantic models translate different names into the same meaning and ensure interoperability between different data sets.

 

WeCity can help you set up a semantic data model or link standards to existing models.
