Automated Construction of FAIR Digital Object Knowledge Graphs from Flat Cultural Heritage Records· 从平面记录构建FAIR知识图谱
The FAIR Digital Object (FDO) framework mandates that metadata attribute values be expressed as persistent identifiers (PIDs) wherever possible, to produce a fully machine-actionable graph in which every reference is resolvable. The Europeana Data Model was designed long before the FDO specification, and it stores most metadata values as plain text. This serves human browsing well enough, but gives an automated agent nothing to follow across records or collections. We present a pipeline that transforms flat Europeana records into an FDO-compliant knowledge graph structured with CIDOC-CRM. Following the FDO specification, we model every heritage entity as a discrete FDO with its own PID, type, profile, and metadata layer. The core technical challenge is automating the FDO-prescribed distinc
