I'm making first steps in querying DBPedia - sorry for my lack of experience. I'm trying to get a list of Polish Kings, with Virtuoso SPARQL Query Editor (http://dbpedia.org/sparql). The ontology is listed here:
http://dbpedia.org/ontology/PolishKing
But I cannot get this query working.
I've tried below three, without success:
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
SELECT ?label
WHERE { <http://dbpedia.org/resource/PolishKing> rdfs:label ?label }
-
select ?type {
?type a owl:PolishKing .
}
-
PREFIX dbpedia-owl: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX dct: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/>
SELECT DISTINCT ?person {
{ ?person a dbpedia-owl:PolishKing }
}
Can You please help with my first query to DBPedia ? Thank You
I found the solution. Unfortunately this ontology I mentioned above is empty, and it was a reason why my queries didn't work. I didn't know that. But,
This query (to a 'Person' in general) makes the job:
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX dbprop: <http://dbpedia.org/property/>
PREFIX : <http://dbpedia.org/resource/>
PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/>
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
SELECT SAMPLE(?name) WHERE {
?person foaf:name ?name .
?person rdf:type dbo:Person .
?person dbprop:title :List_of_Polish_monarchs .
?person dc:description ?description
FILTER regex(?description, "King")
}
GROUP BY ?person
