Approximately a dozen Greek vases from the Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields have been integrated into the ceramics Linked Open Data cloud in the Kerameikos.org SPARQL endpoint. The list of vases can be seen at the Kerameikos URI for Newfields (http://kerameikos.org/id/ima_newfields), as well as on the concept pages related to these vases.
Newfields is a partner of the Linked Art community that is working to define standard CIDOC-CRM / JSON-LD models and APIs for cultural heritage data exchange. The prototype JSON-LD data export for these vases will serve as a test-case for building a Linked Art harvester to transform vase data into a more simplified graph of CIDOC-CRM fully integrated with Kerameikos URIs (by automatically reconciling Getty vocabularies upon harvest). This software development work, facilitated by our grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, will open the door to harvesting data from a growing number of museums as they begin to implement Linked Art APIs.
The data for this initial import were provided by Sami Norling at Newfields in the form of CSV, which was reconciled with OpenRefine to Kerameikos.org URIs. A wrote a simple script to transform this URI-embedded CSV into a simplified CIDOC-CRM RDF model that includes only the essential information for basic query and visualization within the Kerameikos platform..
