#55 Introduction to Linked Open Data (DHSI@Congress)

Susan Brown and Kim Martin

Are you curious about linked open data (LOD)? This workshop serves as an introduction to the semantic web for humanities researchers interested in exploring and disseminating existing research materials as LOD. We will begin with an overview of what it means to translate existing humanities data into LOD, including the use of external ontologies and vocabularies. We will provide an introduction to conversion tools that allow database, XML, and unstructured data to be transformed into linked data for use on the semantic web.

Available as a recording from DHSI@Congress (held 4 June 2021).
