This paper introduces ontological concepts required to evaluate and manage the coverage of social services in a Smart City context. Here, we focus on the perspective of key stakeholders, namely social purpose organizations and the clients they serve. The Compass ontology presented here extends the Common Impact Data Standard by introducing new concepts related to key dimensions: the who (Stakeholder), the what (Need, Need Satisfier, Outcome), the how (Service, Event), and the contributions (tracking resources). The paper first introduces key stakeholders, services, outcomes, events, needs and need satisfiers, along with their definitions. Second, a subset of competency questions are presented to illustrate the types of questions key stakeholders have posed. Third, the extension's ability to answer questions is evaluated by presenting SPARQL queries executed on a Compass-based knowledge graph and analysing their results.
Named entity recognition (NER) is an important task in narration extraction. Narration, as a system of stories, provides insights into how events and characters in the stories develop over time. This paper proposes an architecture for NER on a corpus about social purpose organizations. This is the first NER task specifically targeted at social service entities. We show how this approach can be used for the sequencing of services and impacted clients with information extracted from unstructured text. The methodology outlines steps for extracting ontological representation of entities such as needs and satisfiers and generating hypotheses to answer queries about impact models defined by social purpose organizations. We evaluate the model on a corpus of social service descriptions with empirically calculated score.
