德国联邦中央卡片索引（Bundeszentralkartei）是记录纳粹迫害受害者及其亲属在德国赔偿（Wiedergutmachung）程序中提交的赔偿申请的关键档案资源。为实现这一具有历史意义的馆藏的语义丰富化表示、集成与重用，我们提出BZK本体（BZKO）。我们针对历史档案数据提出两层本体，将基于本体的领域语义与面向互操作性的扩展结构分离。该方法结合基于BFO的实在论与档案标准（RiC-O、PROV-O、PiCo），在保持逻辑严谨性、模块化及数字人文基础设施间重用性的同时，实现了可溯源的语义集成。该方法为将Wiedergutmachung档案材料集成至数字人文基础设施建立了可重用的语义基础，并为未来知识图谱生成、本体验证及纳入更多历史实体、不确定的时间和空间信息奠定了基础。该本体可在以下httpsURL获取。
英文摘要
The Central Federal Card Index (Bundeszentralkartei) of Germany is a key archival resource documenting compensation claims submitted by victims of National Socialist persecution and their relatives, within the German Wiedergutmachung process. To enable semantically enriched representation, integration, and reuse of this historically significant collection, we present the BZK Ontology (BZKO). We propose a two-layer ontology for historical archival data that separates ontologically grounded domain semantics from interoperability-oriented extension constructs. The approach combines BFO-based realism with archival standards (RiC-O, PROV-O, PiCo), enabling provenance-preserving semantic integration, while maintaining logical rigor, modularity, and reuse across digital humanities infrastructures. The proposed approach establishes a reusable semantic foundation for the integration of Wiedergutmachung archival materials into digital humanities infrastructures and lays the groundwork for future knowledge graph generation, ontology validation, and the incorporation of additional historical entities and uncertain temporal and spatial information. The ontology is available on https://github.com/ISE-FIZKarlsruhe/bzko.
