Abstract
The Federation of Ecomuseums and Society Museums (FEMS), with the support of the French Ministry of Culture, has developed a semantic graph and a web portal to display the objects of the collections of its member institutions and to showcase them by pooling the publishing effort.
This project, named GraphEthno, also responds to the need for museums with the label “Musée de France” to publish their inventory. Each museum uses its own catalogue management system and must transform its notices into a common ontology (the LIDO-RDF format) before sending them to GraphEthno.
GraphEthno hosts objects from a wide variety of collections, both geographically and in the nature of the objects, but it makes it possible to create links between objects, actors and manufacturing methods through the repositories shared on these different subjects.
The presentation will focus on the application of the https://semgraph.logilab.fr methodology to the GraphEthno project and describe how the decentralized data sources are merged into a common graph then made browsable as a web portal, each step using open web standards and free software tools.
