VERSD and LINCS

Within LINCS, VERSD is used to match entities with external authorities such as the Virtual International Authority File (VIAF), Wikidata, or the Getty Vocabularies. VERSD’s interface allows for a quicker entity matching process than in OpenRefine.

VERSD stores data within a PostgreSQL database until the user deletes it.
