Introducing PELAGIOS
• Linking Data about the past based on the notion of Place
• Connectivity through Common References
• 40+ partners from 6 countries
• Heterogenous resources: images, texts, databases, etc.
• De-centralized: publish your own data, share the principles
(and there’s some RDF involved, too…)
• We are currently working on an API for search & discovery
http://pelagios-project.blogspot.co.uk
20. So many ways to get involved :-)
• Download our data from Recogito
• Experiment with our API (warning: unfinished)
• Become a Recogito editor
• Become a Pelagios partner!
