From Floppy Disks to 5-Star LOD: FAIR Research Infrastructure for NFDI4Culture

NFDI4Culture is establishing an infrastructure for research data on material and immaterial cultural heritage in the context of the German National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) in compliance with the FAIR principles. The NFDI4Culture Knowledge Graph is developed and integrated with the Culture Information Portal to aggregate diverse and isolated data from the culture research landscape and thereby increase the discoverability, interoperability and reusability of cultural heritage data. This paper presents the research data management strategy in the long-term project NFDI4Culture, which combines a CMS and a Knowledge Graph-based infrastructure to enable an intuitive and meaningful interaction with research resources in the cultural heritage domain

Culture Graph Interchange Format Specification

For the federated acquisition of data for the Culture Knowledge Graph we propose an easy to use, lightweight interchange format based on schema.org for the harvesting of resources from data collections with key attributes (IRIs, names, dates and terms from controlled vocabularies). The Culture Graph Interchange Format (CGIF) has the added benefit of automatically making the data eligible for Google Dataset Search and to significantly improve the findability of websites and datasets through search engine optimization. This is the data publication (source files, figures, post-use materials) of the CGIF specification. The web version is available at https://nfdi4culture.de/go/E3712Funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) – 441958017 (NFDI4Culture
