The “Tech Talk | Semantic interoperability – successful data sharing through common understanding” Webinar was powered by DataBri-X, on the 6th of April, 2023. 

Interoperability within a data space requires participants to be able to understand each other. But how do you get data space participants to use a common language? According to the IDS Reference Architecture Model (RAM), the main responsibility for this common language lies with an intermediary role called a vocabulary provider. This role manages and offers vocabularies (ontologies, data models, schemata, taxonomies, codelists) that can be used to semantically annotate and describe datasets and data services. The vocabularies are made available in a vocabulary hub: a service that enables collaborative governance of the vocabularies.
