LOD Aggregator (LODA)

More and mor heritage institutes are taking steps to publish their collection information as Linked Open Data (LOD), especially in Schema.org to increase the visibility in Google and other major search engines. To lower the barriers for contributing data to Europeana we designed a basic pipeline, the LOD-aggregator, that harvests the published Linked Data and converts the Schema.org information to the Europeana Data Model (EDM) to make the ingest in the Europeana harvesting platform possible.
