The rapidly increasing number of sensor networks and smart devices contributed to the generation of a huge number of information. Information that is generated by several sources and is available in different formats highlights interoperability as one of the key preconditions for the success of the Internet of Things (IoT). Hypercat is a specification defining a JSON-based catalogue, designed to serve the needs of the industry. In this thesis, I extend the existing work on semantic enrichment of Hypercat by defining a JSON-LD based catalogue. The proposed JSON-LD specification offers a mapping mechanism among JSON and JSON-LD catalogues, while highlighting the fact that JSONLD could be seamlessly adopted by the Hypercat community.
