Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach that relies on the innovative idea of reason-able view of the Web of linked data applied to the domain of cultural heritage. We describe an application of data integration based on semantic web technologies and the methods necessary to create an integrated semantic knowledge base composed of real museum data that are interlinked with data from the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. Thus, creating an infrastructure to allow for easy extension of the domain specific data, and convenient querying of multiple datasets. Our approach is based on a model of schema level and an instance level alignment. The models use several ontologies, e.g. PROTON and CIDOC-CRM, showing their integration by using real data from the Gothenburg City Museum.
