Citizen Science Museum Guidebook

Computational Publishing Sevice (CPS) Prototype - Citizen science museum guidebook

image

The prototype is inspired by this Wikicommons function of searching nearby images on a map. https://wikimap.toolforge.org/?wp=false&cluster=false&zoom=16&lat=052.363410&lon=0009.739315

About

A prototype project being made with the students of the Data Science course of Hannover University of the Applied Arts and Sciences - Seminar: BIM-126-02 Data Science (2025), March - June 2025.

The project is to create a system where museum visitors create their own publication guides to museums using linked open data. The project is intended as a citizen science project and for this reason aspects of participation by the public and engagement with scholarship and learning are a priority.

As a basis for the prototype the Computational Publishing Service demo is being used. See: CPS Demo #2

The Spengel Museum Hannover will be used as the example museum. See the museum data profile on Wikidata Resonator
