Specific features of the platform
Resistance in Belgium is based on the free software Wikibase, initially created for the management of the general knowledge base Wikidata. It is a research tool that can accomodate structured and multilingual data that can be read by both humans and machines. Each described term is identified through a unique identifier, and a description and semantic fields provide it with properties. These characteristics make it possible to multiply the options for exploring and visualising the data, but also to offer more context information and to open up the collections by linking them to external data. Procedures are thus put in place to align persons with corresponding Wikidata entries, while the places (birth, residence, death) are are linked to external resources such as Wikidata or GeoNames. By connecting these data, we can obtain other references such as ODIS identifiers or SNAC (Social Networks and Archival Context) that may help users find other resources or archival collections in Belgium or abroad.
