The Semantic Web is an extension of the Web standardized by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) that aims to structure and standardize data on the Internet. It uses formats and protocols such as the Resource Description Framework (RDF), SPARQL, RDFS, and the Web Ontology Language (OWL) to enrich content with metadata and schemas, giving it machine-readable meaning. This organization allows computers to interpret information in a way similar to humans, thus facilitating the exchange, connection, and remote querying of databases. The Semantic Web paves the way for artificial intelligence applications capable of using this data effectively.
