What is Semantic eGov?

Semantic eGov (the Dialogue Part) is the principal tool that enables the information elicitation process between SMEs (or citizens in general) and the Public Authorities. It allows users to personalize the information related to the public service that they need, by providing the functionalities such as a) eligibility check (whether the SME is eligible or not for a specific service) and b) complete, rich and well-structured information for the identified service, i.e. all the information about the where, how, who, when of the service.

The functionalities of Semantic eGov include:

  • Helping citizens and businesses find the specific version of the public services which addresses their needs and matches their profiles among a large number of service versions that a public service type has, through a user-friendly, self-explanatory interface that offers them the necessary guidance throughout the process.
  • Informing citizens and businesses whether they are eligible for a specific public service
  • Provisioning for a complete and well-structured information for the identified service

The component has been developed and deployed in the context of SemanticGov by the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (NUIG), Ireland and CERTH
