Re:Ask HN: 3k museums submitting data. How? by dmje on Saturday April 02, 2022 @02:47PM (#30890652)
Yeh, there's some common schemas as museums share a smallish range of collection databases. But...they tend to use them in their own unique way, which is where the complexity comes in. You're right about the big players, however project traditionally target these guys and we're keen to help the little ones...

Does every small museum create their own format? If so, how did they do this, and can that person output data to your specification?

If there are software providers that output the data, maybe you can standardize on their format.

You can focus on servicing the long tail and still will need to prioritize.
