Description
HI,
I am a master student and doing my thesis this sem. I need help on this "semantic search" module. The documentation on the site is not detailed. I was looking for Base Rdf namespace uri, so that i can try this module on my site. If anybody has any namespace uri, i can borrow and play it on my site. That would be helpful.

Are you sure you want this module, and not the other RDF modules? What are you trying to do?

hi handler,
Thank you so much for replying back. I really appreciate it. My professor told me i will defenetely get a help on these forums.
My thesis was to build a educational video website with careful categorization and semantic search integrated in the site. Here is my site: "http://mh213b.cs.sjsu.edu/classes/cs297/swarna/" , i thought "Semantic search" module is the one that has "semantic search" built in. I was stuck at settings of this module. It asks for "Rdf namespace uri", my professor told me to find a "free namespace uri" so that i can see what exactly this module capable of. plz give me some suggestions on this one.

I wrote Semantic Search - and it was really just a way take CCK content types and a search interface.
What I think you should do is use the Drupal 6 module http://drupal.org/project/rdf.
First , you should describe your data in Drupal terms using CCK and taxonomy - Taxonomy is just a set of categories you create to organize the data, and CCK are the forms and fields of the data which will be entered. Mapping/modeling this Drupal way of organizing heterogeneous content to RDF is your next task.
Your professor is right that you should choose an RDFS namespace or even OWLS (schema) that may already define the relationships you want to describe. - Like extending FOAF and or a standard provided by the W3C or DERI.

Oh, and yes, Semantic Search has search builit in, but you can use the SPARQL module for really using drupal as a SPARQL endpoint, and Drupal's regular search or a faceted search module for searching the Drupal content.
