Question: RDF versions of FHIR
Dec 18, 2013Question
Are you aware of any plans/efforts to create an RDF version of FHIR? (I see that the W3C website has what looks to be a “dead” page on the subject).
Answer
There has been solid interest in an RDF representation for both the resource definitions and for the resources themselves. I’ve seen some preliminary drafts, but the people involved haven’t had time to bring that work to fruition, and we’ve resisted adding it to our core commitments for the DSTU. The DSTU is nearly done now, so I expect this will start the drive towards completion early next year.
