Abstract

The application of Linked Open Data (LOD) principles to legal information (URI naming of resources, assertions about named relationships between resources or between resources and data values, and the possibility to easily extend, update and modify these relationships and resources) could offer better access and understanding of regulatory information to individual citizens, businesses and government agencies and administrations, and allow its sharing and reuse across applications, organizations and jurisdictions.
