Abstract

In digital humanities research, different tools and services need to be integrated to allow for a seamless and streamlined workflow. With the example of project INDIGO, the tasks of archiving, annotating, enriching, and disseminating data with the digital archive ARCHE, the spatial database OpenAtlas, and ACDH-CH’s Vocabs Repository are described in detail. Each of the three services is presented along with its core tasks and how it is used within the exemplary workflow of project INDIGO. New functionality that was necessary for the integration of these services within INDIGO was implemented and is also described.

Martina Trognitz, Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage, Austrian Academy of Sciences, 1010 Vienna, Austria

Martina Trognitz is a senior repository manager of the digital archive ARCHE at the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage (ACDH-CH) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna (Austria). She studied Computational Linguistics and Classical Archaeology at the University of Heidelberg. Martina has accumulated over ten years of experience in long-term preservation and data management, including coverage of data formats suitable for long-term preservation, data management, FAIR data, metadata, metadata schemas, and controlled vocabularies. As a former fellow of the Open Science Fellows Program of Wikimedia Deutschland, Martina is an advocate for Open Science in all its facets. Current research interests include the application of statistical and machine learning methods in archaeology, Wikidata, network analysis, and Linked Open Data. She joined project INDIGO in September 2021 to guide through the process of preserving the digitised graffiti in ARCHE.

Massimiliano Carloni, Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage, Austrian Academy of Sciences, 1010 Vienna, Austria

Massimiliano Carloni (°1990) is currently employed at the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage (Austrian Academy of Sciences) in Vienna. He completed his PhD in Classical Philology at the Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa (Italy) in 2019 with a thesis on ancient Greek literature. His primary research interest lies in exploring the use of semantic technologies and metadata standards to describe and render accessible vast collections of diverse materials. In particular, he is interested in graph-based data models and linked open data. This led him to join the academic graffiti project INDIGO in November 2021 and take up the challenge of developing technical solutions for the description and long-term digital preservation of the collected data. His research output can be found at https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Massimiliano-Carloni.

Bernhard Koschiček-Krombholz, Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage, Austrian Academy of Sciences, 1010 Vienna, Austria

Bernhard Koschiček-Krombholz (°1987) is a software developer specialising in OpenAtlas (https://openatlas.eu) at the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage within the Austrian Academy of Sciences. He earned his BSc in Computer Sciences from the University of Applied Sciences Technikum Wien, Vienna, in 2010, followed by a BA in History from the University of Vienna in 2018. His primary academic interests lie in mediaeval history and archaeology, with a particular focus on the effective management of spatial-temporal, object, and written data. Bernhard’s involvement with graffiti emerged through project INDIGO, where he found himself captivated by the artful expressions and intriguing community dynamics associated with this form of urban art.
