Achieving Interoperability between the CARARE Schema for Monuments and Sites and the Europeana Data Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mapping between different data models in a data aggregation context always presents significant interoperability challenges. In this paper, we describe the challenges faced and solutions developed when mapping the CARARE schema designed for archaeological and architectural monuments and sites to the Europeana Data Model (EDM), a model based on Linked Data principles. The purpose of this mapping was to integrate more than two million metadata records from national monument collections and databases across Europe into the Europeana digital library.

This paper presents a new metadata aggregation approach based on a mediating repository that intends to ensure the integrity, authenticity and semantic enrichment of metadata provided to Europeana by heterogeneous collections. Primary metadata are mapped to CARARE schema, a schema suitable for describing archaeological and architectural heritage assets, digital resources, collections, as well a...

This paper reports on ongoing work about heterogeneous and cross-domain data conversion to a common data model in EuropeanaConnect. The “Europeana Data Model” (EDM) provides the means to accommodate data from different domains while mostly retaining the original metadata notion. We give an introduction to the EDM and demonstrate how important metadata principles of two different metadata standa...

متن کاملAchieving interoperability for metadata registries using comparative object modeling
Achieving data interoperability between organizations relies upon agreed meaning and representation (metadata) of data. For managing and registering metadata, many organizations have built metadata registries (MDRs) in various domains based on international standard for MDR framework, ISO/IEC 11179. Following this trend, two pubic MDRs in biomedical domain have been created, United States Healt...
