Abstract
Linked Open Data (LOD) is a new way of sharing information about digital/physical resources allowing connected computers to better use information related with the resources. LOD allows to enrich information about resources possibly improving the user experience when using the resources or on finding them. This paper presents the experience in publishing as linked data the information which is present on ECLAP portal about multimedia content on performing arts. The system provides access to information about content, the terms of the taxonomy used to classify the content and also structural information like connections with groups managing the content, use in playlists and collections. Moreover information about annotations on audio/visual content is provided and also information about users is available (e.g., the ‘friends’ graph). The enrichments made on geographical information present in the content metadata (e.g., city/country of the performance) allowed to link content with the GeoNames database that is available as liked data.
