POWLA is a formalism that allows to represent linguistic corpora in RDF.

POWLA is an OWL/DL formalization of an abstract data model, PAULA (http://www.sfb632.uni-potsdam.de/d1/paula/doc), that has been developed to represent (a) any type of linguistic annotation applicable to textual data, and (b) any combination of annotation layers.

For a detailed motivation of POWLA and its application to facilitate interoperability of annotated corpora, see

Christian Chiarcos (to appear 2012), Interoperability of Corpora and Annotations, in: Christian Chiarcos, Sebastian Nordhoff and Sebastian Hellmann (eds.), Linked Data in Linguistics. Representing Language Data and Me
