Abstract

Since the advent of blogging, this easy way to publish information has exponentially increased the data volume and its related complexity. Spatial-temporal information, contained inside multimedia postings, need to be better understood by search engines or by end-users as blogs still lack semantic management. The semantic web community has promoted Topic Maps as a technology which reduces the lack of semantics regarding the optimization of information creation, navigation, merging and dissemination. This paper introduces an innovative layer that combines web feed formats such as RSS 1.0 or 2.0 with the Topic Maps data model for semantic-augmented and interoperable information exchange support.
