Ontobio is a comprehensive biographical ontology founded upon the Linked Data Principles. It gathers vocabularies from a variety of domains (such as healthcare, food, travel, bibliographic, CV ontologies) to encapsulate the smallest units of biographical information. Ontobio is conceived as an integrative model, designed using a known methodology to ensure robustness and interoperability, and produced in various serialization formats such as OWL, RDF/XML, TTL, etc. It is populated with the biographical data of S. R. Ranganathan, which can be accessed here. It can be used by anyone to encode biographical data in a graph-based model, or develop a SPARQL endpoint.
