CIDOC-CRM Ontology

On the call today, I mentioned the CIDOC-CRM Ontology that is used by
Museums for Art Collections and Cultural Heritage - see
http://www.cidoc-crm.org/.  The URL for the specification is
http://www.cidoc-crm.org/docs/cidoc_crm_version_5.0.2.pdf

 

CIDOC-CRM has a treatment of provenance - being an ontology of artifacts, it
has to.  Tracing the provenance of a Work of Art is also a good use case.
Comparing how this is done in CIDOC-CRM with our work is one thought.
