There can also be a relationship between two places. Currently it is possible to describe a place as being a part of another, larger place, for example a village that is nowadays part of a larger city. | There can also be a relationship between two places.

+ | Internally, CERL Thesaurus records are stored as JSON objects. From the web interface, the (actual) internal format of a record can be retrieved in JSON or YAML. For compatiblity reasons the interface also supports the old "CT Internal Format" | ||
+ | |||
+ | Additionally CT data can be retrieved in RDF as well (RDF/XML, Turtle or JSON-LD) to use it in Linked Data applications. There are, however, a few pieces of information that are currently not translated into RDF, so RDF description sets are marginally less complete than records in the (JSON-based) internal format or the old (Unimarc-based) "CT Internal Format" | ||
