Update: Apache Stanbol Linked Heritage Demo

This blog is an update of the original Thesaurus management tool – Linked Heritage Project blog that demonstrates the use of Apache Stanbol to provide a thesaurus management tool in the Cultural Heritage field. As a reminder the European funded project Linked Heritage aims to provide culture heritage data and thesauri to Europeana. Ooffee participates in this project around the building of a thesauri import, management and mapping website. On the user side, the website has to be feature rich and easy to use, on the data side SKOS compatible.
