Ontologies - November 2007

MMI hosted 2 more telecons for the developing of device ontologies. Several groups send instrument instances for the purpose of creating a first categorization based on the outputs. MMI also participated in the Coastal Atlas Interoperability (CAI) technical, and participated in the user interface designs, which all depend on the ontologies and the semantic mediator.
