Visualization of Cultural Heritage Collection Data

Problem

Cultural Heritage (CH) Digital Collections comprise:

• Digital CH Objects (images, texts, videos, audios, 3D models)
• Their metadata (title, description, type, ...)
• Additional data about the object, its history, its cultural and historical context:
  • Entities: agents, events, places, physical things, time spans
  • Relations: e.g., has met, occurred at, was present at, is derivative of, is representation of, is part of, incorporates, begins, ends, ...)    

Example of data, documentation, APIs: http://labs.europeana.eu/api

Aim

This topic is suited for Seminars, Projects, and Thesis, as any combination of:

• State of the Art Report about Visualization Approaches for CH Collection Data
• Design and Development of an Interactive Visualization Prototype
