SEA CHANGE 
Linking Data about the Past 
through Geography 
Rainer Simon @aboutgeo 
Austrian Institute of Technology 
Leif Isaksen, Pau de Soto 
University of Southampton 
Elton Barker 
The Open University 
December 11 2014 | DM2E Final Event, Pisa, Italy
Early Geospatial Documents 
Maps and geographic writing 
predating 1492.
The problem: 
Data is “semantically opaque”. 
Geographical context evident to humans, 
but not machines.
Two public workshops to 
• trial our geo-annotation tool RECOGITO 
• reach out to the community 
• turn some raw data into Linked Open Data… 
• …and have fun doing it!
RECOGITO Geo-Annotation Tool

Example 2: Hacking with our data – maps, timelines, networks.
So… What‘s Next? 
Introducing PELAGIOS 
• Linking Data about the past based on the notion of Place 
• Connectivity through Common References 
• 40+ partners from 6 countries 
• Heterogenous resources: images, texts, databases, etc. 
• De-centralized: publish your own data, share the principles 
(and there’s some RDF involved, too…) 
• We are currently working on an API for search & discovery 
http://pelagios-project.blogspot.co.uk
So many ways to get involved :-) 
• Download our data from Recogito 
• Experiment with our API (warning: unfinished) 
• Become a Recogito editor 
• Become a Pelagios partner!
Thank you for your attention
