“SELECT ?data { ?data dcterms:publisher “ADS” } or Linked Data at the ADS”

Archaeology continues to make more and more data open and accessible on the web, however searching and comparing across web-based datasets remains difficult and awkward.  The root of these concerns were addressed in the STAR and STELLAR projects, and subsequent work has built upon their outcomes. This presentation will go beyond those projects and provide an overview of the recent developments in linked data at the ADS and in particular the generic (and hopefully transferable) tools created to simplify the creation and alignment of linked data.  A comprehensive overview of the position of the ADS within the linked data landscape will also be explored.

I concluded my BA in "Preservation of Cultural Heritage and Archaeology" at the University of Bologna in 2008 defending a dissertation work titled :"The management of three-dimensional data in the stratigraphic excavation of SHM-1, Hergla (Tunisia)". The research was focused in the creation of 3D model of complex stratigraphy through GRASS. In 2009, I started an MSc in Computing Archaeoloy (Virtual Past) at the University of Southampton. My dissertation was focused on Late-Holocene Landscape virtual reconstruction of Sebkhet el Menzel, Tunisia.
