Wikidata also uses SPARQL queries, an the linking between two such sets is done by federating queries; a service which Wikidata offers (and which makes use of shared identifiers; another reason to use Wikidata IDs in OSM): https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/Federated_queries Specific OSM-based services which Wikidata federates with include: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:SPARQL_federation_input/Archive#Linked_Geo_Data https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:SPARQL_federation_input/Archive#LOSM -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
