Biology and biomedical research is the main advanced application I am aware of. Its important enough a set of domains to show there is value in semantic technologies (rdf, owl etc) I have been wondering why it got adopted there and not elsewhere. Its not clear. Adoption or not of software and information tools is a mix of cultural and economic reasons beyond pure technical aspects. CSV, json etc are information black holes. Eventually people will realize that the systematic annotation of data within a metadata framework is not fanciful but an enabler of more confident and robust information exchange and processing [1] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4652617/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4652617/
