The geospatial community is starting to incorporate the same technology to model geospatial objects and annotate objects with metadata. The USGS National Map project being a great example. As a provider of RDF based software and services, we see an increased interest from telecom providers, the transportation industry and defense integrators in tracking hundreds of thousands to millions of objects in real time. Consider fleets of trucks, swarms of airplanes, track data for soldiers on the (urban) battle field, track data for endangered animals, or location based services like Loopt. In this presentation we will discuss and demonstrate the role of semantic technologies and performance considerations in developing these projects.

In this presentation we will discuss how to improve data usability with Life Science datasets using AllegroGraph's Federation and Dynamic Materialization capabilities. The presentation will describe several examples from the Life Sciences domain and explore several techniques for these real world use cases. We will also cover some of the other new features available in the new AllegroGraph version 3.2.

We're recorded several webinar topics over the past few months, including Querying Federated Knowledge for Web 3.0 Applications, Social Network Analytics using an RDF Database, GeoTemporal Reasoning with AllegroGraph, plus other topics.
