Historical Maps Knowledge Organization:Need,Framework and Practice
Historical maps are one of the important carriers of information,and their information is implicit in a complex network composed of multiple elements.In order to effectively play the geographical spatial representation role of historical maps and deeply explore their historical,humanistic and evidential values,it is necessary to propose a unified historical maps knowledge organization framework and semantic organization model.This paper systematically analyzes the service goals of historical maps from five dimensions:morphological description needs,content description needs,geographical knowledge services,cultural knowledge services,and evidence knowledge services,and obtains the understanding of historical maps by"map readers"and"resource managers".On this basis,a historical maps knowledge organization framework was designed that includes core links such as historical maps textualization,concept identification,ontology construction,and knowledge association paths and patterns.It also elaborated on each link and the core meanings and logical relationships between them.A structured,data-based,and semantic organization mechanism for historical maps has been formed.The research provides a complete semantic description paradigm for historical maps and enriches the knowledge organization theory and methodology for multi-source heterogeneous information carriers.In the future,it is still necessary to strengthen the automatic generation method of historical maps structured text based on deep leaming to improve the efficiency of textualization.Meanwhile,we should expand the association from traditional resources such as documents and images to new resources such as oral history,social medias,knowledge maps,VR to achieve the multi-modal knowledge association of historical maps.3 figs.5 tabs.41 refs.
