Validation Status
✓✓✓ VALIDATED & VERIFIED ✓✓✓
The conversion has been validated using LinkML methodology:
| Check | Status | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Schema Compliance | ✓ PASS | Both CSV and YAML conform to schemas |
| Field Mapping | ✓ PASS | 33/33 fields correctly mapped |
| Data Preservation | ✓ PASS | 6,980/6,980 cells preserved |
| Value Integrity | ✓ PASS | 0 mismatches detected |
| Record Count | ✓ PASS | 1,351/1,351 records |
Validation Date: 2025-11-17
Validation Method: LinkML schema-based validation
Validation Report: See /docs/NDE_CSV_TO_YAML_LINKML_VALIDATION.md
Field Name Transformations
The conversion applies consistent normalization rules:
| CSV Field | YAML Field | Transformation |
|---|---|---|
Organisatie |
organisatie |
Lowercase |
Plaatsnaam bezoekadres |
plaatsnaam_bezoekadres |
Spaces to underscores, trim |
ISIL-code (NA) |
isil-code_na |
Remove parentheses |
Archieven.nl |
archieven.nl |
Preserve dots |
OODE24\n(Mondriaan) |
oode24_mondriaan |
Remove newlines & parens |
| Empty column | unnamed_field |
Placeholder name |
Full mapping documented in nde_csv_to_yaml_mapping.yaml.

Data Quality Notes
Completeness
- Not all organizations have all fields (by design)
- ISIL codes: 364/1,351 (27%)
- Websites: ~1,100/1,351 (81%)
- Addresses: Varies by record
Known Issues
- Some records have only basic information (name only)
- Parent organizations not fully structured
- Platform participation uses inconsistent values ("ja", "ja?", etc.)
Future Improvements
- Normalize boolean values (ja/nee → true/false)
- Structure parent-child relationships
- Geocode addresses to coordinates
- Enrich with Wikidata identifiers
Integration with GLAM Project
This dataset is part of the larger GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums) heritage institution project. It provides authoritative Dutch heritage organization data (TIER_1_AUTHORITATIVE) for:
- Cross-linking with ISIL registry
- Validation of NLP-extracted institutions
- Enrichment of Dutch heritage custodian records
- Platform and system usage analysis
See main project documentation at /docs/ for integration details.
