Dutch Ships and Sailors - Dutch-Asiatic Shipping as RDF

Dutch Ships and Sailors is a project that aims to provide an infrastructure for maritime historical datasets, linking correlating data through semantic web technology. It brings together datasets related to recruitment and shipping in the East-India trade (mainly 18th century) and in the shipping of the northern provinces of the Netherlands (mainly 19th century). For the northern provinces, the database contains data on the personnel recruited, the ships, and other variables (Monsterrollen Noordelijke Nederlanden).Dutch Ships and Sailors is a CLARIN-IV-project, hosted by Huygens ING in collaboration with VU University Amsterdam, the International Institute of Social History and Scheepvaartmuseum Amsterdam.The data from this project are divided over 5 datasets. See the ‘Thematic collection: Dutch Ships and Sailors’ dataset for a full overview.Between 1595 and 1795 the Dutch East India Company (VOC) and its predecessors before 1602 equipped more than 4,700 ships to sail from the shores of the Netherlands bound for Asia. More than 3,400 ships made the return voyage home. The reference work, ‘Dutch-Asiatic Shipping in the 17th and 18th centuries’ from 1987, by J. R. Bruijn, F. S. Gaastra and I. Schöffer with assistance from A.C.J. Vermeulen, has classified these voyages on which Dutch trade between Europe and Asia was founded in a systematic survey. This dataset is a conversion to Linked Data, to RDF/Turtle, of the digitized version of this publication, the Dutch-Asiatic Shipping (DAS) dataset hosted at Huygens ING, http://resources.huygens.knaw.nl/das/index_html_en.《荷兰船舶与水手》（Dutch Ships and Sailors）是一个旨在为海事历史数据集搭建基础设施的项目，通过语义网技术关联各类相关数据。该项目整合了与18世纪为主的荷属东印度贸易招募与航运业务，以及19世纪为主的荷兰北部省份航运相关的各类数据集。针对荷兰北部省份，该数据库收录了招募人员、船舶及其他相关变量的数据（Monsterrollen Noordelijke Nederlanden）。 《荷兰船舶与水手》是一项CLARIN第四期项目（CLARIN-IV-project），由胡根研究所（Huygens ING）与阿姆斯特丹自由大学（VU University Amsterdam）、国际社会史研究所（International Institute of Social History）及阿姆斯特丹航运博物馆（Scheepvaartmuseum Amsterdam）合作主办。本项目的数据分为5个数据集，完整概览请参见"专题集：荷兰船舶与水手"数据集。 1595年至1795年间，荷兰东印度公司（Dutch East India Company, VOC）及其1602年前的前身共装备了超过4700艘船舶，从荷兰海岸启航前往亚洲；其中超过3400艘船舶完成了返航航程。1987年，J·R·布吕伊恩（J. R. Bruijn）、F·S·加斯特拉（F. S. Gaastra）与I·舍弗尔（I. Schöffer）在A·C·J·弗默伦（A.C.J. Vermeulen）的协助下完成了权威著作《17至18世纪荷亚航运》（Dutch-Asiatic Shipping in the 17th and 18th centuries），通过系统性调研对奠定欧荷亚贸易基础的各类航行进行了分类整理。 本数据集即该著作数字化版本——由胡根研究所（Huygens ING）托管的荷亚航运（Dutch-Asiatic Shipping, DAS）数据集——转换为关联数据（Linked Data）及RDF/Turtle格式的成果，其托管地址为：http://resources.huygens.knaw.nl/das/index_html_en。
