  • From Digital Culture to Digital Heritage

    EN
    With the evolution of the digital world, the term ‘digital culture’ has emerged. How does digital culture tie into the idea of heritage, and how does digital heritage emerge? This video lecture discusses the meaning of 'culture' in a historical and digital context, offering an introduction to 'digital culture' and how this is intertwined with digital heritage.
  • Use of vocabularies for metadata curation and quality assessment in Social Sciences and Humanities

    EN
    This event, organised in the framework of the TRIPLE project, provided insights into the use of “topical vocabularies” and their use in metadata curation and quality assessment in the Social Sciences and Humanities (in the EOSC context). The sessions introduces learners to have a better understanding of the interoperability challenges faced within/by the SSH branch of the EOSC, and be familiar with some initiatives related to metadata curation and enrichment in the SSH.
  • Building and Linking Humanities' Digital Spatial Infrastructures

    EN
    This workshop, focussing on "Spatial data medieval to modern", is the first of a series of workshops from the NOS-HS project "Linking, Building, and Sustaining Humanities Digital Spatial Infrastructures for Research in the Nordic Countries". The main aims of this workshop were to define key concepts (spatial infrastructures, Linked Open Data, metadata, ontology), outline major challenges in the field, and to provide an opportunity to share experiences of addressing the issues in individual and national projects across the Nordic countries.

  • Multilingual Vocabularies for SSH

    EN
    This training event from the TRIPLE Project is jointly organised with the SSHOC Project and is dedicated to the creation, use and management of controlled vocabularies in the SSH. In this training session, the presenters highlight the need for multilingual SSH vocabularies and provide answers to the following questions: What are SSH Vocabularies and why are they so important; How to create a multilingual SSH Vocabulary (The TRIPLE case); How to build an interoperable infrastructure for vocabularies (The SSHOC case).

  • The Importance of User-Centred Design for Open Science Training

    EN
    This training event is devoted specifically to giving an understanding of the importance of the co-design process and the impact it has on the development of digital tools such as the GoTriple Discovery platform. It provides insight on the importance of end-user needs in the design of a discovery platform, the methods used in the TRIPLE Project to consider user needs and showcases the next steps for the GoTriple platform now that the Beta version is released.
  • Visual Data Discovery for the SSH Context

    EN
    The training session is dedicated to Visual Data Discovery in the Social Sciences and Humanities and shows how the GoTriple platform will support exploring research topics with visual search. The added value of knowledge maps and streamgraphs for research discovery are also examined.
  • The Time Machine Project

    EN
    Iason Jongepier from the University of Antwerp and Melvin Wevers from the University of Amsterdam explore the Time Machine Project and how local Time Machine instances can help us expand our understanding of the social, environmental and economic history of the city.
  • Sharing the Experience: Workflows for the Digital Humanities

    EN
    In December 2019, the University of Neuchâtel hosted a second Swiss DARIAH workshop. For this event, young scholars were invited to present their research in depth and to discuss together methodological, data management and research workflow issues.
