OpenUp!General Overview
www.open-up.eu
OpenUp! – What it aims at:• Because access to multimedia resources from natural history collections in
Europe is limited or impossible, especially for the public,
• OpenUp! mobilizes a large variety of multimedia resources from some of the most outstanding natural history museums and botanical gardens in Europe
• and opens them to a wider audience via the European digital library Europeana.

OpenUp! – What it does:• OpenUp! stands for Opening Up the Natural History Heritage for Europeana
• It implements a sustainable pipeline from natural history collections to Europeana (and potentially to other portals using the Europeana standards).
• The connection is accomplished using well established BioCASe and GBIF technologies.
• This is complemented with a system for – data quality control, – data transformation, – and semantic enrichment, including the
common names of species in various languages
to support data providers publishing their data and the public browsing through Europeana.

Its lean infrastructure is sustainable within the natural history community
and will remain functional and effective in the post-project phase.
With this approach, OpenUp! will provide at least 1.1 million
multimedia objects from the natural history to Europeana by 2014.
OpenUp! – What it will achieve:

Efficiency• records and associated multimedia objects references combined in one database• One hosting infrastructure for two aggregation platforms, GBIF and Europeana• Reduction of costs and efforts for maintenance
Sustainability• Maintenance also after the end of the OpenUp! Project• Usage of accepted domain standards for (meta)data exchange
reusable for other platforms e.g. GeoCASe, BioCASE
Quality• Quality check of metadata by Data Quality Toolkit
e.g. dataset integrity, scientific names, (and georeferences) http://services.bgbm.org/DataQualityToolkit/
• Quality check of ABCD mapping and compliance check with Europeana standards by BioCASe Monitor Service http://edit.africamuseum.be/biocasemonitor/

ABCDEFG 1.0 (Access to Biological Collection Databases Extended for Geosciences)http://www.geocase.eu/efgPalaeontology & Mineralogy
These standards are transformed to Europeana Semantic Elements (ESE) & Europeana Data Model (EDM)
