Ontology Web Services - Deprecated

This page has been deprecated. The capabilities described here have been replaced by a new model and implementation of MMI web services. Please visit the web services at MMI page for the latest information.

While these services may still "work", they do not reference current information, and may stop working at any time.

Introduction and motivation

At MMI we are publishing marine vocabularies available as ontologies in OWL. The resources (terms) of these ontologies will be available as Web Services. We have define an interface as starting point to create Web Services. This interface is subject to modifications and not all of the methods have been yet implemented. Related documents are:

• WSDL file
• Servlet that uses the web service
• Interface from where the web services are created automatically
• Tutorial and notes about implementing ontological web services
• Other links and resources

Technologies used:

• Apache
• Tomcat
• AXIS
• JENA
