Maybe a good indicator that there is only minor (industry) need/benefit. The "biggest" Knowledge Graph is Google, but it is unclear, how much there is actually Semantic Web and how much search, ML, NLP etc.. They are all nice ideas, but the practical usecases are rare. I am skeptical of the often touted usecase in Medicine/Drug Interactions. The only time i saw it in the industry, it was not really used by the lab technicians. Because all questions the system could answer, were trivial. The promise of "the system can inference new combinations/interactions" was never fulfilled. |

The second biggest is possibly WikiData, and it is not that small.
As to the practical use cases, there are many, but it is the premier way of encoding metadata for search engines: https://schema.org/docs/about.html
And the amount of datasets and ontologies that exist is quite vast:
- https://lod-cloud.net/dataset
- http://obofoundry.org/
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikidata_Query_Service/User_M...
I would like to understand what other options you would consider better for these datasets, for the metadata and for the ontologies?
I mean if not RDF for web metadata then what? If not semantic web for UK govt data (https://ukparliament.github.io/ontologies/, https://opendatacommunities.org/data_home, https://ckan.publishing.service.gov.uk/dataset?res_format=RD..., https://ckan.publishing.service.gov.uk/dataset?res_format=SP...) then what?
It would be nice to have something even better, but I much prefer RDF to a bunch of CSV files.
