[...] ○ A library to read the OHRM data loaded into a PostgreSQL database and write it out as JSON-LD objects in a Research Object crate has been created: jsonld-exporter/ ○ The library can export ~80% of the OHRM data to JSON-LD objects so far with work ongoing to handle the remaining data objects and modelling to convert to open standards. [...] Using the OHRM as an example, we have converted existing legacy data sets from an MS Access database to SQL, to postgres SQL, to jsonLD, and into self-describing files on disk Next step: allow creation of new data using the same model as the OHRM Extend this approach to other catalogs/databases, in order to create sustainable data objects with metadata We need more coders to work on this!
