- Abstract
- The exchange and reusability of data used for research in the humanities is one of the goals of DARIAH. To increase the interoperability of data sets between disciplines we present an overview and recommendations of measures to achieve this. We account for the finding and fetching of data with legal aspects in mind. This is achieved through standardized methods of discovery and transfer via interfaces on the web. Furthermore, we consider syntactic and semantic interoperability of data for use in different fields of study. Standardized metadata sets are one way to achieve this and we present some of them in this paper. The importance for scholars to find and be able to process data that is be relevant to their work is the main motivation of this document and for the aspects of the digital humanities covered within. We present options for each of the four aspects that we identified (APIs and Protocols, Standards, Identifiers and Licensing).
