LIDO - Lightweight Information Describing Objects Version 1.1
This version:
LIDO v1.1
Publisher:
ICOM-CIDOC LIDO Working Group
Published Date:

Introduction
LIDO is an XML schema intended for delivering metadata, for use in a variety of online services, from an organization’s collections database to portals of aggregated resources, as well as exposing, sharing and connecting data on the web. Its strength lies in its ability to support the typical range of descriptive information about objects of material culture. It can be used for all kinds of object, e.g., art, cultural, technology and natural science and supports multilingual portal environments.
The LIDO schema is the result of a substantial redesign and enhancement of the CDWA Lite and museumdat schemas based on recommendations of the CDWA Lite/museumdat Working Group, community feedback and further CIDOC-CRM analysis. It mainly builds on CDWA and includes additional concepts to meet SPECTRUM requirements.
For more information on LIDO please refer to: www.lido-schema.org
Prepared for CIDOC LIDO Working Group by LIDO-DE Working Group.
The schema is developed at gitlab.gwdg.de/lido/development. LIDO v1.1 is backwards compatible with LIDO v1.0. For a summary of changes please refer to the repository’s README. The full history of LIDO can be found in lido-v1.0-specification.pdf, 2.3 History of the schema.
