Hi all
Is there a standard notation / way of flagging up on a web page that
there is programmatic / structured data available for that page?
So to take a particular example from our sector:
This:
http://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O12345/quarles-emblems-book-illustration-rogers-william-harry/
...has a JSON version which you can find here:
http://www.vam.ac.uk/api/json/museumobject/O12345
...which is amazing (nice one Andrew L et al!)
But - if you visited the web page either as a human or as a robot, you
wouldn't _know_ that there was a data-y representation of it.
AFAIK this doesn't exist as a thing - and it seems odd that it doesn't -
not just our sector but for anyone. I suppose the nearest analogy I can
think of is something like RSS which has an "alternate" rel tag which
basically says "go here for a structured version".
Anyone know of any standard approaches that do this?
Mike
