Through a use case of WHO data, we develop a linked data based health information representation, querying and visualization system. Through out the book, we discussed how to develop such systems using RDF and triple stores, how to write codes for visualization and retrieval. For users who are not familiar with SPARQL queries, we show how to develop and use a search engine interface. From this work we can depict that current linked open data technologies have a big potential to represent heterogeneous health data in...
