Abstract

In the NIE-INE project based at the University of Basel, Switzerland, a national IT- infrastructure is being developed to support scholarly editions. In a first phase, it focuses on data representation and publication, and in a second phase on online editing. The paper deals with the Semantic Web technological (SWT) part, based on W3C standards, used to express edition project data and related knowledge in a formal way. A section on the project objectives discusses the benefits of formalizing the editions, ensuring the FAIR-principles. The hurdles of this process are also described. The state of the art deals with the components of the infrastructure. The development has a complex group of dependencies, of which the core technology provider (graph database and API) has the most impact. A first step, and major part of the SWT, is the development of formal vocabularies (ontologies) to express the editions’ semantics. Also, external generic ontologies (e.g., CIDOC-CRM) are used, together with basic modeling patterns. The important features of the modelling process are described, for example, that expressing data in machine-interpretable standard languages requires explicitness. The results describe the differentiation and integration of ontologies, which are highly reusable for future projects. Different ontological graphics are used for different purposes.
