FLORA – Publishing Unstructured Financial Information in the Linked Open Data Cloud

In the world, where computers assist humans in information processing in almost every aspects of our lives, there are still huge gaps of unsurveyed areas, where data exists in an unstructured or unprocessable form limiting its usefulness and requiring extra human effort. Many times such data is extremely useful for many parties, as is the case of financial data. This paper describes an ongoing work of the FLORA system that aims at transforming unstructured financial data into Linked Data form and interlinking it with other relevant datasets of LOD initiative in order to provide a financial knowledgebase for financial data analysis framework.
