Semantic Web in Cultural Heritage After 2020

چکیده
In this paper we present the current status of semantic data management in the cultural heritage field and we focus on the challenges imposed by the multidimensionality of the information in this domain. We identify current shortcomings, thus needs, that should be addressed in the coming years to enable the integration and exploitation of the rich information deriving from the multidisciplinary analysis of cultural heritage objects, monuments and sites. Our goal is to disseminate the needs of the cultural heritage community and drive Semantic web research towards these directions.

متن کاملHaving Triplets – Holding Cultural Data as RDF
Great hopes are cherished for the Semantic Web. It is intended to make linking data as easy as HTML makes linking Web documents. For the cultural heritage world seamless linking of related but independently curated datasets has long been a dream. This paper looks at the practical and theoretical issues involved in converting data to RDF so that it can become part of the Semantic Web. I propose ...
متن کاملRepresenting and Aligning Thesauri for an Integrated Access to Cultural Heritage Resources
In this paper, we show how Semantic Web techniques can help to solve semantic interoperability issues in the cultural heritage domain. In particular, these techniques can enable integrated access to heterogeneous collections by representing their controlled description vocabularies (e.g. thesauri) in a standardized format – Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS). We also present existing a...
متن کاملSemantic Web and reasoning for cultural heritage and digital libraries
Cultural heritage and digital libraries are two closely related disciplines that traditionally benefit by the application of innovative information technologies. Currently, Semantic Web research has also grown satisfyingly mature to enable achieving tangible results and added-value in both these knowledgeintensive domains, in spite of the critical challenges of knowledge acquisition and reasoni...
