Ficha de Wikiturismo como solución en la web DTI
Casi justo un año después de presentar por aquí Wikiturismo, la oferta wikimedista para los destinos turísticos inteligentes que hemos creado en LaOficina, SEGITTUR ha aceptado publicar la ficha de solución de Wikiturismo para los Destinos Turísticos Inteligentes.
Sólo recordar de nuevo Cicerone.guide, nuestra prueba de concepto de aplicación móvil para el turista basada en el ecosistema Wikimedia.
Modelling protected areas talks
Just keeping up to date with a talk I gave twice past year. I’m very proud of the work but never shared here neither in my Wikidata User:Olea page.
As a brief introduction, for some time I did a significant work importing to Wikidata the CDDA database of European protected areas as I found we have them completely infra represented. I have previous experience with historical heritage but this showed to be a harder work. I have collected some thoughts about lessons learned and a potential standarizing proposal for natural protected areas but never structured in a comprensive way until being invited to give a couple talks about this.
The first talk was in Lisboa, invited and sponsored by our friends of Wikimedia Portugal, in their Wikidata Days 2023. To be honest, my talk was a little disaster because I didn’t prepared the talk with time enough, but at least I could present a complete draft of the idea.
Then I have the opportunity to talk again about the same issue in the next Data Modelling Days 2023 virtual event.
My participation was sharing the session with VIGNERON, he talk about historical heritage and I did about natural heritage/natural protected area. For this session I was able to rewrite my proposal with the quality a communication requires. Now you have available the video recording of the full session:
And my slides, that would be the final text of my intended proposal:
As a conclusion: yes, I should promote this in Wikidata, but the amount of work it requires (editions and discussions) is, for the moment, outside my interest for my freetime.
Misadventures modelling Andalusian heritage
Related with the previous post, I have pending too to publish my notes about my experience importing, sorting and cleaning the descriptions of the rich Andalusian historical heritage. Our friends of Wikimedia Portugal invited and sponsored my travel to Lisboa to share my, sometimes sad, practical experience in their excellent Wikidata Days 2023 meeting.
I used this invitation as a motivation to finally compile all the experience I learned when importing the Digital Guide to the Cultural Heritage of Andalusia into Wikidata.
The presentation format is really suboptimal. To be honest I’m a bit tired of working a lot in slides with very short live (many times just one ocassion). But I still think the contents are useful enough.
