Metadata för språkresurser : en Application Profile inom området kulturarv
(2003)Division of ALM and Digital Cultures
- Abstract
- The EU-funded project European Cultural Heritage Online (ECHO) aims to integrate
resources from various domains within the field of cultural heritage, and make them available
on the Internet. To accomplish this integration it is necessary to describe the various resources
in a way that will achieve cross-domain interoperability. This description of digital resources
is commonly referred to as metadata. The most well known and used metadata standard is the
Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, a general standard developed for the purpose of
describing all types of digital resources. Since the mid-1990's a large number of specialized
standards have emerged in different communities, for example IMDI, designed for detailed

Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, a general standard developed for the purpose of
describing all types of digital resources. Since the mid-1990's a large number of specialized
standards have emerged in different communities, for example IMDI, designed for detailed
description of language resources.
This thesis aims to examine the possibility of combining a general and a specialized metadata
standard to achieve cross-domain interoperability and at the same time provide a sufficiently
detailed description of language resources for researchers within the field of linguistics. A
combination of two (or more) metadata standards in a compound schema is called an
application profile. The purpose of an application profile is to provide a tailor-made schema
for a specific context. The present study examines the semantic and structural problems
concerning the creation of an application profile for language resources, which combines
elements from the metadata standards Dublin Core and IMDI. (Less)
