Abstract

Knowledge management plays a crucial role in initiatives that promotes the discovery and sharing of cultural and heritage informational resources from diverse and autonomous organizations and initiatives. Information in this domain is heterogeneous, distributed, multi-lingual, comes in unstructured formats and large quantities, is strongly contextualized by time and place is created collaboratively. These challenges can be undertaken using semantic technologies. Semantic Web approach and Linked Data technologies are a catalyst for cross-domain and cross-organizational semantic data interoperability and data integration. In this regard, this work will look at the interaction between knowledge management and linked open data within the context of cultural and heritage data with a particular focus on the concept of music data. This work will discuss, among other things, how Semantic Knowledge Graphs based on linked data can contribute to enhancing knowledge management and increase productivity, in actions related with cultural data enrichment, data exploration, knowledge discovery, cultural data reuse, and data visualization. By representing information using data models and open semantic standards, data integration and reasoning can be applied to the cultural data in a well-defined way.
