What we're trying to do
Our ultimate goal is to create an environment that facilitates
end-users in seeing meaningful connections among individual
items (stories, photos, graphics, videos) through underlying
knowledge of the descriptions of the items, their relationships
and related background knowledge. This requires semantic
metadata models to improve metadata interoperability along the
entire production chain.
