Description

Description of the issue

By attempting to improve our current text-based search (next to the tag-based search) i figured that we could take advantage of the dbpedia-lookup service that we already integrated in our infrastructure. It is used to implement the text-based autocomplete search that is used to provide the ontological-annotation in the oemetadata (as part of the ometabuilder feature).

We can use the same pattern to implement a powerful search that will provide:

  • automatic feedback on text input
  • feedback provides multiple result options that are ranked by similarity
  • (Additional) Description for each option
  • Possibly a search that could later be combined with other data to create an overarching search for all our sources oedb(data, metadata), oeo, oekg(also bundles).

Ideas of solution

Create a graph database (maybe as part of the oekg jenna-fuseki db) that provides the context of each data table. It should at least contain all data tables by name and topic. To improve the feature the graph-DB should be extended by additional information like a description, readable name or even review/badge.
