LODinG is dedicated to the application of Linked Open Data (LOD) in the humanities, with a focus on linguistics, literature, cultural studies, and media studies. The main intention is to collect, model, link, and make freely available information in a machine-readable, standardized form. Entities such as persons, places, organizations, and topics are provided with unique identifiers through norm data in order to record rich, contextualized information in machine-readable statements and to be able to expand them collaboratively.

The relevance of the LOD paradigm for the humanities lies in its novelty and the possibility of integrating qualitative and interpretative approaches with quantitative and algorithmic methods. The project aims to advance the emerging field of research in the humanities and to benefit from technological developments and networking with existing LOD resources.

The research program spans various areas of the humanities, including digital lexicography, editorial studies, digital humanities, sinology, and legal studies. The sub-projects address specific applications of LOD, from the indexing of pandemic vocabulary to the editorial indexing of early modern literature, and the extraction of semantic statements from humanities literature.

The goals of the project include unlocking the potential of LOD for innovative research in the humanities, consolidating and strengthening LOD expertise at the University of Trier, and establishing LOD as a sustainable research paradigm.
