A semantic web case study: representing the ephesus museum collection using erlangen CRM ontology

Cultural heritage has recently become an important application area for Semantic Web technologies. Semantic Web technologies and ontologies provide a solution for intelligent integration of heterogeneous data about the cultural heritage. The objective of this paper is the construction of an ontology for the cultural heritage related to Selçuk region in Western Turkey. We use a subset of the Erlangen CRM as our ontology schema, then we populate the ontology with 814 objects in the Ephesus Museum. One of the objectives of this work is to integrate the ontology with other projects which use Erlangen CRM as ontology schema. Therefore, we present an integration case study that aggregates content from Ephesus Museum and British Museum.Özacar Öztürk, T., ÖZtürk, Ö, Yüksel, F. ve diğerleri..
