Atomizing: How to create and publish Atomic Data

We call the process of turning data into Atomic Data Atomizing. During this process, we upgrade the data quality. Our information becomes more valuable. Let's summarize what the advantages are:

• Your data becomes available on the web (publicly, if you want it to)
• It can now link to other data, an become part of a bigger web of data
• It becomes strictly typed, so developers can easily and safely re-use it in their software
• It becomes easier to understand, because people can look at the Properties and see what they mean
• It can be easily converted into many formats (JSON, Turtle, CSV, XML, more...)

How to Atomize data

• Using the Atomic-Server app + GUI (easy, only for direct user input)
• Using one of the libraries
• Using the API (easy, only for direct user input)
• Create an importable JSON-AD file (medium, useful if you want to convert existing data)
• Make your existing service / app host and serialize Atomic Data (hard, if you want to make your entire app be part of the Atomic Web!)
