Abstract

Due to the fact that the presentation as accurate and as wide as possible of the events in which cultural heritage is involved play an essential role in understanding the past, the metadata aggregators must use representation models that satisfy the demands of information. Unfortunately, even if, besides the object orientated approach, the Europeana Data Model also makes available a more complex approach, oriented towards the events in which the object is involved, no data aggregator, uses the latter approach. Therefore, we propose a framework for translation of the represented metadata using the LIDO XML Schema, in sets of semantic data represented in conformity with the Europeana Data Model, using the event-oriented approach, so that users have the possibility to interconnect the events to cultural heritage objects and the other way around.
