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.
