Data Ingestion Episode III – May the linked open data be with you

The linking of research data has been a dominant topic for years, especially in digital history. Linked Open Data (LOD) is the buzzword at conferences and in research projects. However, it is not the collection of such data available on the internet that is the greatest challenge here, but its harmonisation, because research databases are usually structured differently. It is therefore not surprising that despite many initiatives no research project in digital history has yet been realised being able to harmonise data across several structural levels of the databases. This means, for example, not only linking persons of databases by their names, but going deeper into the data structure to harmonise, for example, the geographical origin or attributes of a person’s education. But that would be the aim: to answer scientific questions through structural data harmonisation. This is where our SPARK project comes in.
