Abstract

Purpose of the study: This research aims to organize a knowledge system and develop an ontology about the Heet-Sib-Song Custom in Northeastern of Thailand. By using Linked Open Data (LOD) in presenting the knowledge agent in the form of computer language.

Methodology: This research is R&D by using the Thesaurus concept to organize the knowledge system from content analysis and to create a set of knowledge structure about the Heet-Sib-Song Custom. The ontology concept is a tool for creating knowledge agents by using the HOZO Ontology Editor. Moreover, evaluating data links through the Linked Open Data system by experts.

Main Findings: Organizing the knowledge system about the Heet-Sib-Song Custom can used as a set of basic knowledge in creating ontologies. However, the structure is not very complicated. It is not suitable to apply to Semantic Web technology. Therefore, the test conducted using a linked open data system in order to explain the ontology more easily.

Applications of this study: The ontology is a structure that can used as a medium for explaining knowledge in other traditions, by converting the language structure to a RDF / XML file format. That using connect to open knowledge in other Linked Open Data.
