Current M.O. for exchanging information
By: MeganBeange Date: February 1, 2017, 2:19 pm

What is your current method of operation for exchanging
information?
Could you foresee a workflow that would not require a
"centralized" database or model?
What do you know about the Linked-Data approach?

We exchange information differently for different projects
because the teams and the relationships vary. Difficult to
manage, complicated and time consuming at times.
What is the Linked-Data approach?

I guess the linked data approach may be something relating to
API data exchange with tools such as
HTML https://flux.io/
right?

Hi all. I think I could summarize Claudia's comment by saying
"information exchange is possible, but not easy", which is
really a task for software developers to sort out. Am I right?
IMHO, what we need to help sort it out are "background"
technologies, and promote the use of open standards to help that
technology. Things that users never see (in cell phones, that
would be the network you're on, the protocol used by the phone
to communiate with towers, etc). The product (the phone in this
case) should encompass all those standards to make it easier for
us users.
The buildingSMART IFC is one such technology, and "linked data"
is another technology. Linked data is not something you buy and
turn on, but something that could be built into an application
or data service designed to acquire and share information
quickly and efficiently.
