### Dataset Summary

This dataset contains 2,750 labeled entries from the Encyclopédie of Diderot and d’Alembert, all classified under Geography.
The GeoEDdA-TopoRel dataset provides a set of features used at different stages of our knowledge graph construction pipeline, which is illustrated in the figure below.

## Dataset Structure

The dataset is provided as JSON files where each item follows the following structure:

```
{
  "volume": "17",
  "numero": "2303",
  "head": "TRÉVOUX",
  "text": "TRÉVOUX, (Géog. mod.) ancienne petite ville de France, <...> ",
  "entryType": "Place",
  "cardinality": "Single"
  "placeType": "City"
  "placeNames": [{"start": 48,  "end": 54, "text": "France", "label": "Country"}, {"start": 86, "end": 92, "text": "Dombes", "label": "Region"}, {"start": 118, "end": 126, "text": "la Saône", "label": "River"}, <...>],
  "spatialRelations": [{"start": 94, "end": 117, "text": "sur le bord oriental de la Saône", "label": "Adjacence"} ]
  "segmentedDescriptions": "[]"
}
```

Each data contains ten fields: 

- `volume`: volume number of the entry from the Encyclopedie ARTFL dataset
- `numero`: number of the entry (within the volume) from the Encyclopedie ARTFL dataset
- `head`: entry name
- `text`: plain text of the entry
- "entryType": type of geography entry, possible values are: `Place`, `Person`, `Other`
- "cardinality": indicates whether the entry describes a single place or multiple places. Possible values: `Single` or `Multiple`
- "placeType": "City"
- "placeNames": [{"start": 48,  "end": 54, "text": "France", "label": "Country"}, {"start": 86, "end": 92, "text": "Dombes", "label": "Region"}, {"start": 118, "end": 126, "text": "la Saône", "label": "River"}, <...>],
- "spatialRelations": [{"start": 94, "end": 117, "text": "sur le bord oriental de la Saône", "label": "Adjacence"} ]
- "segmentedDescriptions": list of segmented sub-entries if cardinality is equal to `multiple`, empty list otherwise.
