Springer Nature's Scigraph is a linked open data platform aimed at enhancing content discoverability and collaboration in the scholarly domain by providing rich metadata and data tools for various stakeholders. The platform has released about 150 million triples and facilitates access to a broad range of bibliographic and related data under an open license. Future initiatives include data publishing updates, interactive graph exploration, and partnerships to enhance visibility and utilization of the data.
