EuropeanaTech task force ideas

EDM aspects:
- data attribution, provenance and licensing
- expressing authority/trust for links and identifiers (Maybe wiser to do a TF on data attribution first)
- approximate geo coordinates, or places that cover an area (can be part of a TF on validating EDM template for Places)
- data versioning
- interoperability with schema.org and EU ISA vocabularies
- experiments: best practices/case studies for mapping to EDM
- documentation: richer publishing of EDM (e.g. HTML documents for Linked Data redirection)
- infrastructure for EDM data (semantic repositories and others)
Data Quality-related:
- strategy: selecting relevant data resources for enrichment (items, events, periods, places in history
- tools for semantic extraction from object metadata (name extraction, topic extraction), object clustering (loose FRBRization), alignment of reference contextual resources (thesauri etc.)
- survey: keeping track of enrichment of Europeana metadata
Techniques for advanced search
- clustering and/or ranking of (objects) search results
- recommendation/personalization (cf Karl's experiments)
- timeline and geo functions (cf Pelagios experiment)
- content-based search: similarity-based search, full-text search (cf AIT's work in DSI-2 on image similarity and DSI-1 on audio features)
User-contributed data
- includes error fixing (original metadata on enrichment), tagging, adding new fields on a record
