Globalise Ontology Project

Globalise Ontology Project

Description:

This project serves as the modelling space for developing an appropriate set of classes and properties to bind together the semantic elements of the GLOBALISE project's datasets into a common semantic framework. GLOBALISE is dedicated to empowering researchers and the wider public to explore the early history of Dutch colonialism in Asia. It involves annotating entity and event mentions within approximately 5 million scans of 17th and 18th-century documents. These annotations are then linked to contextual datasets on e.g. persons, places, and polities.

The classes and properties generated here will be developed bottom up relative to the data gathered and analysed in the scope of the project. This project will rely on the general framework of several large common ontologies including CIDOC CRM and SKOS to guide its modelling principles, as well as specialized ontologies for historical research such as CRMaaa. It will also make reference to semantic reference modelling patterns from groups such as Linked.Art and the SARI SRDM project to guide a controlled modelling process that will generate sustainble semantic data for research into the future.
