Hi,

About this same issue I propose to change the labelling of CRMsoc from "Model for Social Documentation" to "Model for Social Phenomena" because we model the phenomena themselves, not the documentation about them. Also "social documentation" sounds surprising and somewhat unusual.

Hi,

I agree with the addition proposed by Thanasis.

I'd propose on my side to add the few words between * * in the text below belonging to the "What is the idea ?" section.

"CRMsoc can be used to describe **characteristics of individuals or groups**, economic transactions, rights held by people and groups, historical phases and the description of plans. As a high level conceptual framework for data integration the CIDOC CRM and the CRMsoc extension will provide interoperability of existing models devoted to specific historical subdomains (e.g. political, intellectual, social, economic history). "


Further, I propose to validate and publish both sections of the introductory text (it can be found here <http://www.cidoc-crm.org/sites/default/files/412%20CRMsoc%20introductory%20text.docx>) —with the proposed additions if validated by the SIG— on the CRMsoc extension website – for preventing that it remains empty longer.


About the text concerning the use of OntoME, we're working hard (with the available resources) to come to a MVP of the web application: should be done by the end of this year.  Some research projects are starting to use OntoME for data production and integration (cf. the presentation in the APOLLONIS workshop tomorrow Monday). I therefore propose to wait until the next SIG meeting to discuss on a possible section about the use of OntoME (separate section on using OntoME <http://www.cidoc-crm.org/sites/default/files/412%20CRMsoc%20text%20in%20%20OntoME.docx>).


All the best

Francesco

Hello,

Most of this is for Francesco and Vincent, but I had a small part of the homework which was to add a sentence to the introductory text to clarify that CRMsoc is under development. So here is the text again with the added sentence in the end:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
What is CRMsoc?
CRMsoc is a formal ontology for integrating data about social phenomena and constructs that are of interest in the humanities and social science based on analysis of documentary evidence. The scope of CRMsoc is the following areas of analysis:
    • Characteristics of human beings, as individuals or groups
    • Social relations, including between people, between people and groups, and between groups
    • Rights and duties
    • Economic activities, including relations between people and things, such as financial transactions leading to ownership
    • Plans, including expressing proposed activities and legislation
    • Evaluations, including assessing risks and estimating the value of things CRMsoc uses and extends the CIDOC CRM (ISO21127): a general ontology of human activity, things and events happening in space-time. It uses the same encoding-neutral formalism of knowledge representation (“data model” in the sense of computer science) as the CIDOC CRM, which can be implemented in RDFS, OWL, in an RDBMS and in other forms of encoding.
--------------
CRMsoc is currently in active development and we welcome comments and contributions to it.
