*Scope*

A plethora of data about cultural and/or natural heritage is nowadays 
available to both public and private institutions (e.g., universities, 
libraries, archives, museums, etc.). These data are highly heterogeneous 
in terms of both formats and contents. In addition, the way in which 
they are organized and characterized depends on the socio-cultural 
contexts of different working communities, their research methodologies, 
languages, and ways of thinking. As a consequence of this heterogeneity, 
it is hard to find connections across multiple datasets or to agree on 
data publishing policies and shared vocabularies to describe data in a 
common manner.

Researchers and stakeholders challenge this situation by relying on 
theories, methodologies, and technologies developed in areas such as 
Linguistics, Conceptual modeling, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, 
Knowledge representation and reasoning. These research efforts are 
characterized by a strong interdisciplinary nature and their methods are 
nowadays largely exploited in Social Sciences and Humanities (including 
Digital Humanities).

The purpose of the conference is to bring together multiple research 
communities and stakeholders working with Open Science and FAIR 
principles in the context of heritage studies. As advocated by the 
European Commission, FAIR principles play a decisive role to define 
guidelines and valuable tools for managing data in robust ways. We are 
particularly interested in research questions addressing both 
methodological and application challenges emerging from data management 
practices (e.g., data modeling, sharing, integration, analysis, etc.). 
The conference will provide guidance and ensure the sustainability and 
implementation of the FAIR model in the context of the European Open 
Science Cloud. For this purpose to be achieved, the conference will host 
*practical sessions* where participants can familiarize with existing 
methods and tools, and can present their own applications.

-----------------------------------

Topics of interest for *poster presentation* include (but are not 
limited to):

- Sustainability of FAIR principles for cultural/natural heritage 
knowledge representation and data management;
- Current social challenges for the reuse of research datasets, 
including policies for data reuse;
- Scholarly Digital Editing of primary sources, including written artefacts;
- Evidence based Digital Autoptic Processes on written and non-written 
artefacts;
- Books as 3D cultural heritage objects;
- Foundational challenges about knowledge representation and data 
management for cultural/natural heritage;
- Ontologies for geo-spatial or temporal knowledge representation and 
data management;
- Lessons learned from the use of ontologies like CIDOC-CRM or FRBR(oo);
- Methodologies, languages, and tools for ontology mapping, including 
ontology-based data access (OBDA) approaches;
- Semantic characterization of visual data, e.g., 3D models, 2D+ models, 
point-cloud sets, etc.;
  - Software applications for cultural/natural heritage data management 
(e.g., Web platforms, data visualisation tools, etc.);
