Another Word For It Patrick Durusau on Topic Maps and Semantic Diversity

UK Science, Media, Railway Data Dump!

Filed under: Dataset — Patrick Durusau @ 6:48 pm

Documentation for collections data from Science Museum, National Media Museum, National Railway Museum (NMSI) released as CSV was the original title.

OK, so I took some liberties with the title.

It is one thing to have an interesting data set. It is quite another to get enough attention to encourage its use.

Pass this along to science, media and railroad sites and lists. I am sure some of the partisans there will be interested.

Questions: (Remember, I promised to return to these.)

  1. Choose one of the collections. Describe the topic map you would create with the data. (4-6 pages, no citations)
  2. What aspects of your topic map make it easier to incorporate additional information from other sources? (4-6 pages, no citations)
  3. Outline your design of an interface for delivery of content from your topic map. (4-6 pages, no citations)
  4. For extra credit, up to and including no final, create your topic map. (subject to instructor approval)
