However, progress in this field is being hampered by <a href="/facts/Interoperability/7WgqUbXU">interoperability challenges</a>, most notably differences in vocabularies and annotation schemes used for different resources and tools. Using Linked Data to connect language resources and <a href="/facts/Ontology_(information_science)/SQlhl6lp">ontologies</a>/<a href="/facts/Terminology/1tfqvX1h">terminology</a> repositories facilitate re-using shared vocabularies and interpreting them against a common basis.</li> <li>In <a href="/facts/Corpus_linguistics/uxRe9Uj8">corpus linguistics</a> and computational philology, <a href="/facts/Overlapping_markup/C353HNtm">overlapping markup</a> represents a notorious problem to conventional <a href="/facts/XML/clNgUfWk">XML</a> formats.

As a criterion for inclusion into the LLOD diagram, the OWLG requires "linguistic relevance": "[A] dataset is linguistically relevant if it provides or describes language data that can be used for the purpose of linguistic research or natural language processing."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:33" href="#fn:33"><sup>33</sup></a> This does include linguistic resources in a strict sense ("condition 1": an annotated or otherwise structured resource created for application in language sciences or language technology, as demonstrated, for example, by a scientific publication at a linguistics-related journal or conference), but also resources "that can be used for annotating, enriching, retrieving or classifying language resources ... [if their relevance] can be verified by the existence of links between a resource (whose linguistic relevance is to be confirmed) and resources fulfilling condition (1)" ("condition 2").<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:34" href="#fn:34"><sup>34</sup></a> </p><p>A related issue is the classification of linguistically relevant datasets (or language resources in general). The OWLG developed the following classification for the LLOD cloud diagram:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:35" href="#fn:35"><sup>35</sup></a> </p> <ul><li><a href="/facts/Text_corpus/bYeEQQdh">corpora</a>: linguistically analyzed collection of language data</li> <li>lexicons: lexical-conceptual data <ul><li><a href="/facts/Lexical_resource/yCwD4rqz">lexical resources</a>: lexicons and <a href="/facts/Machine-readable_dictionary/WylY5EqD">dictionaries</a></li> <li><a href="/facts/Termbase/YoCQvhFY">term bases</a>: terminologies, <a href="/facts/Thesaurus/w7xnH66H">thesauri</a> and <a href="/facts/Knowledge_base/zKXdqQjH">knowledge bases</a></li></ul></li> <li><a href="/facts/Metadata/qt35z79C">metadata</a> <ul><li>linguistic resource metadata (metadata about language resources, incl. digital language resources and printed books)</li> <li>linguistic data categories (metadata about linguistic terminology, incl. <a href="/facts/Linguistic_categories/pu5jSUID">linguistic categories</a>, language identifiers)</li> <li>typological databases (metadata about individual languages, esp., linguistic features of those languages)</li></ul></li> <li>other (placeholder for resources that are not (yet) classified)<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:36" href="#fn:36"><sup>36</sup></a></li></ul> <p>Note that in this classification, term bases might be slightly different in that they do not provide grammatical information, however, since they formalize semantic knowledge, they are of immanent relevance for natural language processing tasks, such as named entity recognition or anaphora resolution. </p> <h3>Open Data: Availability</h3> <p class="note">See also: <a href="/facts/Open_data/h9695bNE">Open data</a></p> <p>LLOD is defined in relation to Linked Open Data, and <i>LLOD resources</i> (<i>data</i>) should thus conform to licenses in accordance with the <a href="/facts/The_Open_Definition/TuFcnjRK">Open Definition</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:37" href="#fn:37"><sup>37</sup></a> For generating the LLOD cloud diagram (and the LOD diagram), this does, however, not seem to be enforced yet, so that the technical criterion is availability over the web and a metadata entry. In the OWLG, it has been repeatedly discussed whether non-commercial (academic) resources could be included with a general consensus of admitting them for the moment (2015) but subsequently enforcing stricter requirements along with the growth of the LLOD cloud. As of January 2018, it was not agreed upon yet when this move was about to happen.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:38" href="#fn:38"><sup>38</sup></a> As of January 2020, machine-readable license metadata was available for 86 LLOD resources, of these, 82 adopted open licenses, 4 adopted non-commercial licenses.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:39" href="#fn:39"><sup>39</sup></a> </p><p>In a broader sense, the term <i>LLOD technology</i> (infrastructures, tools, vocabularies) can also used to refer to the technology independently from whether actually open resources are involved, e.g., in the name of the EU project <i>Pret-a-LLOD</i> that features several commercial business cases.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:40" href="#fn:40"><sup>40</sup></a> This is justified for applications that consume (rather than provide) open data, but moreover, also when linked data technology and the adoptation of other LLOD conventions (esp., the use of RDF vocabularies developed in the context of LLOD) are applied in order to facilitates the seamless integration of <i>LLOD resources</i> (open resources). </p><p>The abbreviation "LLOD" can be used to refer to either LLOD technology (use of Linked Data and LLOD vocabularies, independent from the legal status of the data being processed) and LLOD resources (open data). For disambiguation, the terms "LLOD resources" and "LLOD technology" can be used. For emphasizing application or applicability to non-open resources, also "LLD" (Linguistic Linked Data) has been used.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:41" href="#fn:41"><sup>41</sup></a> A possible compromise is the acronym "LL(O)D" for the technology. A "Licensed Linguistic Linked Data" cloud that contains non-open resources does currently (June 2020) not exist.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:42" href="#fn:42"><sup>42</sup></a> </p> <h3>Linked Data: Formats</h3> <p class="note">See also: <a href="/facts/Linked_data/XKhE5aTQ">Linked data</a></p> <p>The definition of Linked Data requires the application of RDF or related standards. This includes the W3C recommendations SPARQL, Turtle, JSON-LD, RDF-XML, RDFa, etc. In language technology and the language sciences, however, other formalisms are currently more popular, and the inclusion of such data into the LLOD cloud diagram has been occasionally requested.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:43" href="#fn:43"><sup>43</sup></a> For several such languages, W3C-standardized wrapping mechanisms exist (e.g., for <a href="/facts/XML/clNgUfWk">XML</a>, CSV or relational databases, see <a href="/facts/Knowledge_extraction/eopEv228">Knowledge extraction#Extraction from structured sources to RDF</a>), and such data can be integrated under the condition that the corresponding mapping is provided along with the source data. </p> <h2 id="selected-literature">Selected literature</h2> <p>A 2022 review paper is: </p> <ul><li>Anas Fahad Khan; Christian Chiarcos; Thierry Declerck; et al.
