MMI Paper on Semantic Mediation Published

graybeal — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 22:17:03 -0800

The MMI Project is pleased to report an MMI-based paper, Semantic mediation of vocabularies for ocean observing systems, has been accepted for publication in the journal Computers & Geosciences. Co-authored by John Graybeal, Anthony Isenor, and Carlos Rueda, the paper describes how semantic mediation of vocabularies is needed for any diverse ocean observing system, and the semantic framework and technologies introduced by MMI. It includes an explanation of the MMI Ontology Registry and Repository, describing many of its features, present uses, and possible future uses.

This paper serves as a simple basic introduction to semantic tools and mediation, an overview of MMI's semantic framework and tools, and a great citation for the MMI ORR work that has been funded by NSF and supported by MMI's staff and many volunteers.

MMI Semantic Web Services and Tools

With the proliferation of vocabularies specific to projects, data repositories, domains, and even individual scientists, finding and using data has become a manual and often labor-intensive task.

The National Geoinformatics Community project held a workshop September 23-24, 2010, at the Federal Center in Denver. Attached below are presentations by Nan Galbraith (WHOI) about how MMI helped to build a similar community for the marine sciences, and Bob Arko (LDEO) about the MMI Device Ontology focusing on a use case for multibeam sonars.
