Exposing and Linking Cultural Heritage data Community Group
This group was closed on 2023-04-07.
The wealth of data about cultural heritage collections held within archives world-wide is of great interest for humanities research and education activities. Yet this data is too often hard to find, created in isolated silos and poorly documented. Large projects such as RES (https://bbcarchdev.github.io/res/) , HuNI (https://huni.net.au), Europeana (http://www.europeana.eu) and CLARIAH (http://www.clariah.nl/) express a clear need for making that data easier to find, link and consume. The mission of this community group is to discuss which standards are needed to facilitate this process. The aim is to produce recommendations for cultural heritage data exposure using the work of RES, HuNI, Europeana and CLARIAH as a starting point.

Hi everyone!
In order to get started chatting I thought we could have a look at the different type of entities each project expose to their users. Here is a quick draft gathering that data:
What do you think ?
My guess is that some common level of agreement on the type of entities data consumers may look for will help design shared search APIs. This would potentially make it easier to implement uniform search interfaces that could query CLARIAH/RES/Europeana/Acropolis all at the same time 🙂
