WP5: cultuurlink.beeldengeluid.nl has been taken down. Presumably, the reason is lack of uptake in the cultural heritage community. So, SKOS alignments, for now, can not be made using cultuurlink. No example can be delivered.
BurgerLinker produces a new dataset, rather than a linkset, in which all people it deems the same person are collapsed into a single entity with a new URI. Each of these entities has one or more 'civ:personID' properties, which specify the identifiers of the different instances of the same person in the original (CSV) dataset.
Do you by ‘alignment’ mean ‘reconciliation’? In that case, it’s relevant to note that NDE’s Network of Terms now supports the Reconciliation Service API. We’ve started with support for the RKDartists and CHT terminology sources, and will soon be adding support for all other sources in the Network of Terms (in any case, those sources that don’t offer a Reconciliation Service themselves).
@ddeboer No, an alignment is a mapping between two vocabularies. A reconciliation is actually a replacement of local values in a dataset with URI's and labels from a authorative source.

Ah, I was confused by
Alignment/matching (reconciliation)
Is any of core services concerned with reconciliation? Seems to me quite important foundational tooling when working with data.
@ddeboer I proposed this service to the SDR, but it didn't make it. But we do have the FAIR vocabularies service and maybe reconciliation can be part of it.
@wmelder re the reconciliation service that didn't make it: it was not included as a task within the SDR as it was not clear where to put it. If it can be part of FAIR vocab that would be great.
We need example linksets from the alignment tools in CLARIAH:
