Best Practices

Zitgist is committed to full compliance with semantic Web and linked data standards and use of reference RDF schemas (or vocabularies).  Zitgist is not a creator of these standards and references, but an integrator and conveyor of them following best practices.

Though the company has its own internal guidelines for documentation (a passion) and ontology development, Zitgist recommends these resources.

Standards

Best practices begin with adherence to open standards.  Standards compliance promotes access, sharing and interoperability.

Zitgist follows the various semantic Web standards of the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium), including those for RDF, OWL, SPARQL, GRDDL and XSLT.  Joshua Tauberer's RDFabout.com RDF Specifications page is an excellent starting point.
