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;"

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#> .

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
