Open Data Search Results

openfirst.ch is an ongoing project that makes open data sources more accessible. Anyone at the beginning of web research who wants to get an idea of a certain topic quickly and reliably will be flooded with mostly non-effective results. The search engine openfirst.ch delivers fewer but more qualified hits. For the initial test phase, the results are categorized into media, institutions, statistics, science and Wikipedia.

Domain Ontologies for the Humanities

e-editiones.ch

e-editiones.ch was developed by Cyrill Martin during the National Infrastructure for Editions project at the University of Basel and is being further developed by kmapper.

Core of the website is the library of humanities ontologies, which are maintained as Turtle files in their own GitHub Repository. For the website, the ontologies are automatically converted into various RDF formats and HTML. e-editiones.ch supports content negotiation in order to request specific formats programmatically and meets the criteria of 5 Star Linked Open Data.
