Hi all, I'd like to get some feedback on the use of OA to preserve and share data created using Timeline JS (via http://timeline.knightlab.com/) and TimeMapper(http://timemapper.okfnlabs.org/) as annotations that an be contributed to a broader data set. I don't necessarily want to preserve all the data in the timeline in this case, just the association of a resource with a date (or a date and a place in the case of the TimeMapper tool). So, e.g. given the following data from a timeline: Start Date End Date Headline Text Media Media Credit Media Caption Media Thumbnail Type Tag -760 BCE -710 BCE Il. 14.319 "nor of Danaƫ of the fair ankles, daughter of Acmsius, [320] who bare Perseus, pre-eminent above all warriors;" http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0012.tlg001:14.319 <//www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.perseus.tufts.edu%2Fhopper%2Ftext%3Fdoc%3DHom.%2BIl.%2B14.319%26fromdoc%3DPerseus%253Atext%253A1999.01.0134> Perseus Project Tufts University Greek Text Whose source is a google spreadsheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MtN2tLKhTYuaLGWTArh5IJJCTc1BCJDjSx2lA8iWZME/edit#gid=494070028 I might serialize an annotation as: @prefixcnt:<http://www.w3.org/2011/content#> . @prefixdcmit:<http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/> . @prefixoa:<http://www.w3.org/ns/oa#> . @prefixperseus:<http://data.perseus.org/> . <perseus:annotationsurn:cite:perseus:pdlann.1> aoa:Annotation; oa:annotatedBy<perseus:sosol/users/JohnSmith> ; oa:hasBody<perseus:annotations/urn:cite:perseus:pdlann.1/tag> ; oa:hasTarget<perseus:citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0012.tlg001:14.319> ; oa:motivatedByoa:tagging. <perseus:annotationsurn:cite:perseus:pdlann.1/tag> adcmit:Date, cnt:ContentAsText, oa:Tag; cnt:chars"-0760/-0710"; oa:hasSource<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MtN2tLKhTYuaLGWTArh5IJJCTc1BCJDjSx2lA8iWZME/edit#gid=494070028> . In an ideal world, I could use a semantic tag for the date, but I'm not aware of any that would work here. I think the alternative approach might be to use an extension of oa:motivation to indicate the motivation is assigning a date to the target resource. I'd love to get some feedback on whether this approach makes sense, if anyone has done something similar already, or if there are any suggestions for ways to do this better. Thanks! Bridget
