What is VIVO?
• VIVO is open standards and linked open data regarding research and scholarship – people, papers/products, funding, events, resources, projects, data, concepts – and the relationships between them
• VIVO is open source, community maintained software tools for research discovery and networking
• VIVO is a world community of collaborators – scientists, implementers, developers

How does VIVO store data?
![Page 8: VIVO: Collaboration and Connections for Research Discovery and Scholarship](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56816402550346895dd5a282/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Semantic Web• Resource Description Framework (RDF) – W3C standard
for representing triples.• RDF-Schema (RDFS) – descriptions for ontologies• OWL – Web Ontology Language• Semantic Web for the Working Ontologist, Second
Edition: Effective Modeling in RDFS and OWL, Dean Allemang, James Hendler, 2011
• One or more ontologies for representing information• Sets of triples• SPARQL – a query language for RDF

VIVO and the Semantic Web
• VIVO is a semantic web application– VIVO stores its data in triples– All triples have URIs for each element– All data is available via RDF
• The VIVO ontology is available here http://vivoweb.org/ontology/core
• VIVO contains an ontology editor• VIVO provides a data harvester• VIVO provides a SPARQL endpoint

… And the connections between them

Data, Tools and Community
Linked Open Data in a common format, regardless of the system providing data
Web-based applications provide services for discovery and scholarship

VIVO produces both HTML and RDF
Software reads RDF from VIVO and
displays
