From "Data Stacking" to "Meaning Generation": Knowledge Graph Reconstruction and Digital Narrative of Urban Red Cultural Resources from the Perspective of Digital Intelligence

A Case Study of Guangzhou

Abstract

Against the backdrop of the in-depth implementation of the national cultural digitization strategy, the protection and inheritance of urban red cultural resources face a critical challenge of transforming from "digital preservation" to "digital-intelligence activation." Currently, red resource-rich areas represented by Guangzhou generally exhibit a phenomenon of "data stacking" in their digital construction. This is characterized by an emphasis on physical digital scanning and archival listing, coupled with a lack of deep development based on semantic associations. This results in fractured narrative logic of the red gene and a loss of historical context. Introducing the Knowledge Graph theory from the perspective of digital humanities, this paper proposes a path for knowledge reconstruction ranging from the ontology layer and association layer to the application layer. By constructing a red culture domain ontology adapted to Guangzhou's specific characteristic as a "Source of the Revolution," this study achieves semantic interconnection and knowledge reasoning of multi-source heterogeneous data. Furthermore, it establishes a digital narrative mechanism with multi-dimensional coupling of "Time-Space-Event-Person," transforming fragmented information into an embodied and perceptible space of meaning. The research aims to explore the theoretical logic and practical path of value generation for red cultural resources empowered by digital intelligence, providing theoretical support and methodological reference for the living inheritance of urban red memory in the new era.
