Metadata, Terminology & Interoperability

Relationships

Create more coherence in your collection by making broader, narrower and related terms visible. This improves collection structures, enriches metadata and supports consistent exhibition narratives.

Relationships

In collections and exhibitions, the relationship between concepts is often as important as the concept itself. An object can be connected to a broader category, a more specific concept or a related term. When these relationships are not explicitly recorded, connections remain less visible and collections become harder to structure consistently. With Relationships, we help suggest broader, narrower and related terms, creating more coherence in terminology and collection structure.

We help make relationships between terms visible and enrich them with suggestions for broader, narrower and related concepts. This supports a consistent structure for thesauri, collection structures and exhibition narratives. By making semantic relationships more explicit, objects become better connected to themes, categories and contexts within the collection. This supports metadata enrichment, collection management and the development of public-facing narratives and digital search structures centred on coherence.

Control and quality

AI does the preparatory work. Results remain reviewable and are configured around your sources, fields, terminology and quality criteria. Where relevant, the source or passage remains traceable. Your organisation decides what is adjusted, approved and ultimately used.

A concrete first step

We prefer to start with a clearly defined test set. Together we agree the required output, quality criteria and review flow. This shows what works before you scale up.
