Abstract

In this paper, it is presented how to enrich available linked data to facilitate the work of experts in the Musacces project (http://www.musacces.es/). First step has been implemented in the current version of a prototype MPOC1, that allows the access and visualization of information related with the Spanish Prado Museum (the target of the project). Main aim of the project is to work with semantic technologies in two ways: the management of available data from different resources creating in a first step a “local repository” for research purposes. The implemented functionalities are based on a crawler that extracts all the available metadata from an artwork and its artist, and on an enrichment component allowing the collaboration of the experts, in order to access and visualize the information guided by the user.

The second step is going to be the use of a semantic graph that can assist the experts (humanists) not only to create a textual-narrative that explains distinct stages of history but to create a management model that allows interaction with the semantic objects (and its relations) that make up the narration and its presentation modes (textual, sign language, etc.). This way, personalized narratives for certain groups of society can be created by the experts and being visualized from different points of view (storylines, maps, events lists…) as well as different presentation to the public, taking their abilities into consideration.
