Clinga

[Chinese Linked Geographical Dataset]

While the geographical domain has long been involved as an important part of the Linked Data, the small amount of Chinese linked geographical data impedes the integration and sharing of both Chinese and cross-lingual knowledge. In this project, we contribute to the development of a new Chinese linked geographical dataset named Clinga, by obtaining data from the largest Chinese wiki encyclopedia. We manually design a new geography ontology to categorize a wide range of physical and human geographical entities, and carry out an automatic discovery of links to existing knowledge bases. The resulted Clinga dataset contains over half million Chinese geographical entities and is open access.
