Architecture

Proposed system architecture:

• MetaSource published as a set of static RDF resources accessible via HTTP GET
• Meta-source links out to other HTTP-accessible RDF resources hosted elsewhere, e.g. Pleiades, Wikidata, library catalogs, etc.
• Article with interactive figures (see PresentingTheArgument) implemented as an HTML + CSS + JS + WASM application
• RDF data is downloaded to the browser and queried locally using SPARQL
• Map figures use MapLibre GL JS to serve map tiles from our map server
