Exploring the Future of Europeana

September 25, Project Group Assembly 2013, The Hague

Europeana v2.0

“The aim of this Thematic Network called Europeana v2.0 is to

provide the Europeana Foundation which is responsible for

Europeana with the majority of the funding required to ensure

the continued running and development of Europeana from

October 2011 to February 2014.”

WP7 Innovation

“Objective of this work package is to continue to develop the

Research and Development Community that has built up

around Europeana. This community needs to be facilitated to

continue to meet, to innovate and undertake research needed

for the future of Europeana. Such innovation and research is

also beneficial for the broad cultural heritage and research

communities.”

Key objectives of WP7 - Innovation

Continue to develop the R&D Community around

Europeana

Identify future innovation potential for the development of

Europeana services

Encourage experimentation with new applications

Main areas of work:

Further establishment of the developers network

Extension and maintenance of FLOSS inventory

Solutions for user interaction and user generated content

Semantic Web and Linked Data

Contribution to multilingual features of Europeana

Developers

Currently:

• EDM Model

Refinements

• Multiligual & Semantic

Enrichment Strategy

Focus 2012:

• FLOSS inventory

Focus 2013:

• Software development

EuropeanaTech

Community

From MS37 Mission Statement:

"The mission of the EuropeanaTech community is to gather task forces on

specific technical points (metadata display issues, extensions to the Europeana

Data Model, etc) and foster a Europeana Software Developers Network”

Report by Task Force: Recommendations for the

representation of hierarchical objects in Europeana

Case studies provided by the various domains

represented in Europeana

EDM models proposed for various types of

hierarchies

Set of recommendations for Europeana

Recommendations for the representation of

hierarchical objects in Europeana

Report by Task Force: Report on EDM – FRBRoo

Application Profile

The aim of the task force was to extend, correct or

restrict this suggested mapping and provide

examples for the use of the combined EDM and

FRBRoo namespace clusters.

This report delivers combined models in terms of

properties and classes of EDM and FRBRoo

illustrated by sample data.

The report also provides principles for modeling

and mapping rules based on the experiments of

the working groups.

Report on EDM – FRBRoo Application Profile

Task Force on EDM Mappings Refinements

and Extensions

The main work of the task force will consist of

collecting mappings / extensions to / of EDM and

summarizing as well as documenting all strands of

work from different partners and projects into an

overall 'big picture’

• The number of contributing content partners is steadily

increasing within this network and with this also the

number of metadata formats, schema, etc. the EDM has to

integrate.

• A lot of different projects and partners have been working

on different adaptions, refinements and mappings

Chairs: Valentine Charles and Marlies Olensky

Task Force on Multilingual & Semantic

Enrichment Strategy

Focus on collections that are multilingual

Identify vocabularies that can be used to enrich

them

Workshop in Berlin, November 8

Chairs: Vivien Petras, Juliana Stiller & Antoine

Isaac
