- 14. 1. Immediate focus should be placed on populating a Canadian performing arts knowledge graph. 2. Wikidata is complementary to Artsdata.ca; efforts should therefore be undertaken to contribute to its population with performing arts related data. 3. A data governance framework needs to be developed in cooperation with representatives from across the arts sector to establish who is able to share what type of data with whom, and who will have authority over which data/information. 4. Further research is needed to better understand user requirements with regard to the adoption of linked open data practices in existing and emerging service offerings. 5. Further effort is required to develop and describe novel business models that leverage and maintain a well-functioning linked open data ecosystem for the performing arts.

LOD Publication of Named Entities and Controlled Vocabularies Study funded by E-Government Switzerland, 2019 ▶ Great demand for base registers relating to territorial divisions, geographical location of objects, identification of organizations. ▶ High demand for data from the Federal Statistical Office and Swisstopo; the latter is doing a great job in publishing LOD, the former less so. ▶ Most data publishers require additional support in view of LOD publication of base registers (tools, guidelines, consulting). Potential for Data Usage Feasibility of Data Publication Readiness of Data Providers Goal: All Important Base Registers Published as LOD Prio 1 Source: Estermann, B., Gschwend, A., Haller, S., Parrales E.

Linked data in the context of heritage data platforms: data provision and semantic search Workshop in Three Groups (45 minutes) Some Guiding Questions • Who are the key stakeholders? What are their usage / contribution scenarios? What are user needs in terms of data and services? • Which elements of the linked data ecosystem are you/we focusing on? What are complementary elements in terms of value creation? • What are meaningful next steps? (think of low hanging fruits)
