45+ partners from 10 countries
ca. 1,000,000+ annotations
4. The Pelagios method | Lightweight semantic annotation
Typically an Annotation has a single Body, which is the comment
or other descriptive resource, and a single Target that the Body is
somehow "about". The Body provides the information which is
annotating the Target. This "aboutness" may be further clarified
or extended to notions such as classifying or identifying.
5. Recogito LOD | identify the place (target), align to the authority (body)
