Semantic Web
What do we want to find out?
Web 3 brings together the tools that make technologies work better for the people that use them.The more information there is, the harder it is to find in a way that’smeaningful for the issues people need to tackle. The more the webenables us to work with others, the harder it becomes to capture theknowledge that has been gained from conversations. We need to makethe web become smarter and more meaningful for us so we can makethe best use of it. We need to explore web 3 in our drive toopen up our expertise from staff to the public, so they can make better decisions onareas that affect them.If we want to create the conditions for people to make the best use of knowledge online, then we also need to get the most out of innovativetechnologies to make this possible. We will engage groups who may beworking in this area such as Kent Web Managers Group.Web 3 provides an umbrella for a variety of concepts and relationships,so we will focus on researching
semantic APIs
which takeunstructured information and find relations between these, softwareagents that search for relevant information thanks to ontologies,ontologies which define the relationships among groups of terms calledmetadata, 
microformats
which add semantics to existing HTMLdocuments using specific styles, and
resource descriptionframeworks
a variety of data interchange formats

.The analysis shows that web 3 can find keywords in your search andalso interpret the context in which you mean them. These technologiescan give us a better understanding of what we need, what we knowand how we work. For the developers, the technologies that make upweb 3, work together both between their “back end” systems and “frontend” interfaces.

LikeRDF/XML, N3, Turtle, N-Triples

Such as RDF Schema
 
In the areas we will research, we want to enable staff and citizens touse the web in the same way as they think, rather than having to thinklike a computer.
