Your terminology as a part of the semantic Web recommendations for geocoded digital cultural content

The aim of the Linked Heritage project is to support cultural institutions in providing object data for publication in Europeana. A way of supporting them is by providing instruments and tools helping them in enlarging their knowledge on digitisation issues. This new book Geocoded Digital Cultural Content, written by Franc Zakrajsek and Vlasta Vodeb, focuses on Geographic location, which is a very important attribute of a cultural heritage item. It can describe provenience, the current institution, as well as the location of the event or other related events. The added value of the geo-coded cultural content is in the browsing of cultural portals efficiently through space and time, and searching for content in a more user friendly way. This includes searching without necessitating the typing of geographical names, making it possible to discover overlapping cultural content at the same location but originating from different sources and at different times.
