The local node in the Aalto University is situated at the Department of Computer Science, Semantic Computing Research Group (SeCo), that has affiliated members also at the Helsinki Centre for Digital Humanities (HELDIG) and Helsinki Institute for Social Sciences and Humanities (HSSH). Our focus is on developing and maintaining a national Linked Open Data (LOD) infrastructure and applications for Digital Humanities. Specifically, we work on the Sampo series of LOD services on the Linked Data Finland platform LDF.fi, tools for creating and publishing LOD, such as the Sampo-UI framework, and on semantic portals with data-analytic tools for knowledge discovery. There are over 20 Sampo portals on the Web that have had up to millions of users.
