In the context of a research and development project, the authors are cooperating with a municipal archive aiming at supporting the preservation of physical documents and at facilitating the information extraction and dissemination. Saving individual records, such as emigration documentation, it is important for end-users, and History or Social Sciences Researchers as they can know more about each individual and they can learn about society. Using the Internet resources, the information stored in digital format may be brought forward on web pages displaying it to the end-users and enabling them to learn and interact with the available information, creating knowledge. The long-term goal is to automatize the creation of these Web sites, so-called learning spaces, from high-level descriptions. This paper discusses the creation of virtual exhibition rooms (VER) from ontological descriptions of the emigration digital archives. It presents the data retrieved from documents and stored in a digital repository, and then proposes the use of the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CIDOC-CRM) ontology (a standard in the area of museums knowledge representation). That ontology will provide a higher level of description, where concepts are enhanced (instead of data items and low-level relationships holding among them). SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language (SPARQL) is then used to query the Resource Description Framework (RDF) triple-storage; eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) allow to create templates that are used to automatically build the VER that is a conceptual navigator over the repository. |
