LInked Data Services (LIDS) denote the integration of dataproviding services and Linked Data. LIDS are parameterised and formally described web resources which return RDF when dereferenced via HTTP. In this paper we present a general method for creating Linked Data Services; LIDS consist of data access interface conventions that are compatible to Linked Data principles and a lightweight formal description model. Our approach is based on established Web standards including HTTP, RDF and SPARQL.
