NFDI4Culture Metadata API

Our main objective is to guarantee a permanent and comprehensive technical infrastructure for the entire consortium which is closely intertwined with the legal and data-ethical aspects. The manifold research data collections of material and immaterial cultural assets will be combined into an overarching knowledge graph. In addition, the tools and services NFDI4Culture consortium offers to the community will be connected and made available via the Culture web portal.

At the same time, diverse ethical and legal issues for researchers and institutions that provide, manage or use data are to be taken into account. Material and immaterial cultural assets are subject to specific and sometimes complex legal circumstances which they pass on to the digital data that has been generated from them. We will provide support to the research community in the present while working towards future legislation that will be better tailored to existing needs.
