Historical Research meets Semantic Interoperability: The Documentation System SYNTHESIS and its Application in Art History Research

  • 1. Centre for Cultural Informatics, FORTH-ICS

Description

We present the SYNTHESIS documentation system and its use in the context of a large European research project of Art History, called RICONTRANS. SYNTHESIS is Web-based, multilingual, and configurable for use in other digital humanities fields. It focuses on semantic interoperability and achieves this by making use of standards for data modelling (CIDOC-CRM). The aim is the production of data with high value, longevity and long-term validity.
