Semantic Web
The promise of web standards W3C standards define an open web platform for application development. The web has the unprecedented potential to enable developers to build rich interactive experiences, that can be available on any device. The platform continues to expand, but web users have long ago rallied around HTML as the cornerstone of the web. Many more technologies that W3C and its partners are creating extend the web and give it full strength, including CSS, SVG, WOFF, WebRTC, XML, and a growing variety of APIs. W3C Standards and Drafts Why W3C web standards? W3C publishes recommendations, that are considered web standards. W3C develops technical specifications according to the W3C Process, which is designed to maximize consensus, ensure quality, earn endorsement and adoption by W3C Members and the broader community. W3C web standards are optimized for interoperability, security, privacy, web accessibility, and internationalization. Wide array of applications

Kuchen für alle! 15 hilfreiche Tools für die Datenvisualisierung
Datenvisualisierung bietet sich immer dann an, wenn man Informationen an andere Menschen weitergeben will, die mit dem untermauernden Zahlenmaterial nicht vertraut sind. Je größer die Datensätze, desto komplizierter wird eine händische Aufbereitung. Entsprechende Tools können die Arbeit erheblich erleichtern und schicke Charts basteln – wie beispielsweise unser Artikel zur Datenvisualisierung mit Charts.js zeigt. In den vergangenen Jahren hat das Angebot an webbasierten Lösungen und Desktop-Anwendungen für das Sammeln, Analysieren und visuelle Aufbereiten von Daten erheblich zugenommen. Wer mit großen Datensammlungen hantiert und auf perfekte Organisation, optimale Lesbarkeit oder ein individuelles Design nicht verzichten will, muss allerdings technische Kenntnisse und grafisches Knowhow mitbringen. Axiis Bei Axiis handelt es sich um ein Framework für die Datenvisualisierung, das sich sowohl an Einsteiger als auch fortgeschrittene Entwickler richtet. BirdEye Bonsai Ember Charts Envision.js

Fresnel - Display Vocabulary for RDF
This site provides an overview of the Fresnel display vocabulary being developed by participants of the Semantic Web Interest Group. Fresnel is a simple, browser-independent vocabulary for specifying how RDF graphs are presented. Introduction Presenting Semantic Web content in a human-readable way consists in addressing two issues: specifying what information contained in an RDF graph should be presented and how this information should be presented. Each RDF browser or visualization tool currently relies on its own ad hoc mechanisms and vocabularies for addressing these issues, making it impossible to share RDF presentation knowledge across applications. Fresnel's two foundational concepts are lenses and formats. Like CSS, Fresnel is designed as a purely declarative language. Fresnel is licensed under the terms of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) license. Vocabulary and Documentation Fresnel documentation: The Fresnel vocabulary is split into four modules defined by: Implementations
