AB  - Problem statement: The wave of ontology has spread drastically in the cultural heritage
domain. The impact can be seen from the growing number of cultural heritage web information
systems, available textile ontology and harmonization works with the core ontology, CIDOC CRM.
The aim of this study is to provide a base for common views in automating the process of mapping
between revised TMT Knowledge Model and CIDOC CRM. Approach: Manual mapping was
conducted to find similar or overlapping concepts which are aligned to each other in order to achieve
ontology similarity. This is achieved after TMT Knowledge Model already undergone transformation
process to match with CIDOC CRM structure. Results: Although there are several problems
encountered during mapping process, the result shows an instant view of the classes which are found to
be easily mapped between both models. Conclusion/Recommendations: Future research will be
focused on the construction of Batik Heritage Ontology by using the mapping result obtained in this
study. Further testing, evaluation and refinement by using the real collections of cultural artifacts
within museums will also be conducted in the near future.
