By re-using schema.org properties, CGIF has the added benefit of automatically making your data eligible for Google Dataset Search and other search providers, including image searches. The Googlebot and other web crawlers will recognise the markup as soon as they next visit your website. The extended examples below provide information on how to enhance your data for search engines beyond (but compatible with) what is necessary to get your data into the Culture Knowledge Graph as embedded metadata.
The following code is used inside the <head></head>
of a website's HTML. The example illustrates the full set of embedded metadata used by the Corpus Vitrearum Germany. The different use of @language
compared to the basic example illustrates how to incorporate (partly) internationalised content.
