SpringerNature, Germany

Markus Kaindl, today Senior Manager Semantic Data, joined Springer 4 years as Data Manager for the Springer Book Archives project, retro-digitizing 110.000 books from the company’s rich history. Gradually moving from big data consolidation to semantic enrichment, he covered Named Entity Recognition (NER), automatic document classification and structuring of unstructured bibliographic references. Finally, he was project manager for lod.springer.com, Springer’s Linked Open Data (LOD) platform for conference proceedings published in Computer Science.
After the merger with Nature and successful metadata migrations for Palgrave Macmillan and Metzler Markus is now product owner of Springer Nature SciGraph – which overcomes former scholarly boundaries by relating comprehensive information of the research landscape.
