<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Within the EU funded project INCEPTION &amp;ndash; <i>Inclusive Cultural Heritage in Europe through 3D semantic modelling</i>, the key-targeted achievement is the development of a specific cloud based platform, in order to accomplish the main objectives of accessing, understanding and strengthening European Cultural Heritage by means of enriched 3D models. The whole INCEPTION project is based on the close connection between state-of-the-art architectural modeling technologies (BIM, Building Information Modeling) and the latest cutting-edge web technologies. The platform is grounded on semantic web technologies and makes extensive use of WebGL and RESTful APIs, in order to enrich heritage 3D models by using Semantic Web standards. The INCEPTION platform will be a space for interchange of information and for the dialogue among professionals, students, scholars, curators, non-expert users, etc. Furthermore, the Semantic Web structure interlinks the platform with external Cultural Heritage available linked data and makes it gradually enhanced by specific flexible data structures provided as project specific ontologies. The paper will describe solutions based on the match between BIM, Cloud and Semantic Web.</p>

Application Fields

Cultural Heritage and Digital Humanities have become major application fields of Linked Data and Semantic Web technologies. This editorial introduces the special issue of the Semantic Web (SWJ) journal on Semantic Web for Cultural Heritage. In total 30 submissions for the call of papers were received, of which 11 were selected for publication. The papers cover a wide spectrum of modelled topics related to language, reading and writing, narratives, historical events and cultural artefacts, while describing reusable methodologies and tools for cultural data management. This issue indicates and demonstrates the high potential of Semantic Web technologies for applications in the Cultural Heritage domain.

This study proposed a phased reverse engineering framework to construct cultural heritage archives using laser scanning and a building information model (BIM). This framework includes acquisition of point cloud data through laser scanning. Unlike previous studies, in this study, a standard for authoring BIM data was established through comparative analysis of existing archives and point cloud data, and a method of building valuable BIM data as an information model was proposed. From a short-term perspective, additional archives such as member lists and drawings can be extracted from BIM data built as an information model. In addition, from a long-term perspective, a scenario for using the cultural heritage archive consisting of historical records, point cloud data, and BIM data was presented. These scenarios were verified through a case study. In particular, through the BIM data building and management method, relatively very light BIM data (499 MB) could be built based on point cloud data (more than 917 MB), which is a large amount of data.

Cultural heritage institutions are exploring Semantic Web technologies to publish and enrich their catalogues. Several initiatives, such as Labs, are based on the creative and innovative reuse of the materials published by cultural heritage institutions. In this way, quality has become a crucial aspect to identify and reuse a dataset for research. In this article, we propose a methodology to create Shape Expressions definitions in order to validate LOD datasets published by libraries. The methodology was then applied to four use cases based on datasets published by relevant institutions. It intends to encourage institutions to use ShEx to validate LOD datasets as well as to promote the reuse of LOD, made openly available by libraries.
