Introduction

The fc:work semantic annotation refers to the works of art & built works that are part of the Artresearch project and is the domain used for the semantic modeling described below.

Model Section Description

A combination of CIDOC-CRM ontology, fundamental categories and relationships was used in order to achieve the most efficient way for the retrieval of the semantic data. The fields used to describe a work can be functionally grouped according to higher level units in order to allow for an easier approach to the navigation of the data by information category. The information categories identified have been enumerated in the following table.

# Name Description
1 Artwork / Monument This information category gathers identifiers,types to a work, last known location etc.
2 Creator / Attribution This information category presents attribution information related to the documented work.
3 Physical Properties This information category presents information related to physical properties of the documented work
4 Provenance This information category presents information related to the provenance of the documented work.
5 Subjects This information category presents information related to the subject of the documented work.
6 Dating This information category presents dates related to the documented work.
7 References This information category presents references related to the documented work.
