Why this matters¶
Combining your data with someone else’s is rarely blocked by the file format. It is blocked by meaning: their id is your building_code, their area is measured differently from yours, and nothing in either file says so.
RDF describes data so that its meaning travels with it, using shared vocabularies instead of local column names. That is what makes datasets from different institutions genuinely combinable — and it underpins a lot of Built Environment work, from BIM to city-scale energy models.
