In general, our research combinescognitive-semantic parameters such as toponyms, landmarks, spatialframes of reference, geometric relations, gestalt principles anddifferent perspectives with computational linguistic analysis(Thiering, 2015). We designed a workflow comprising the steps oftranscription, annotation, geographic verification, export andontology-based semantic enrichment of these data, finally stored andpublished as Linked Open Data. We use Recogito(<ref xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" target="https://recogito.pelagios.org">https://recogito.pelagios.org</ref>,15.09.2019) as our main tool for static annotations of places andpersons/peoples in text and maps. Toponyms are georeferenced withgazetteers, in our case primarily with Pleiades(<ref xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" target="https://pleiades.stoa.org">https://pleiades.stoa.org</ref>,15.09.2019), and the annotations can be exported in various formats,in particular, CSV, GeoJSON, and KML. Spatial relations in texts areannotated in terms of the cognitive-semantic parameters by means ofthe brat tool. These annotation data are mapped into triples encodingcognitive parameters, primarily in "figure-spatial_relation-ground"constructions. Furthermore, dependency parsing(<ref xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" target="http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/udpipe">http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/udpipe</ref>, 15.09.2019) has been applied to the text for comparison. To achieve a generic semantic level for linguistic and map-related annotations, we perform a transition to an ontology-based representation. For this purpose, we defined a domain ontology <hi xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" rend="italic" style="font-size:11pt">hmap</hi>for historical maps and geographical texts based on the event-centeredCIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM, ISO standard 21127) and itsspatio-temporal extension CRMgeo in OWL-DL(<ref xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" target="http://erlangen-crm.org">http://erlangen-crm.org</ref>,15.09.2019). Using the CRM opens up a wide spectrum ofinteroperability and linking to many web resources. The domainontology <hi xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" rend="italic" style="font-size:11pt">hmap</hi> <hi xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" style="font-size:11pt">for the description of historical maps and their content offers a framework for the general metadata of maps and geographical texts as well as for descriptions of their content.</hi>
