swatson — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 10:54:00 -0800

Event Description

MMI proposes to hold free metadata tutorials that are divided into 30-minute modules at the Ocean Sciences 2008 meeting. The modules will be: Introduction to Metadata; Introduction to Controlled Vocabularies, Taxonomies and Ontologies; Submitting Metadata to a Clearinghouse; and Metadata Best Practices.

SKOS, RDF or OWL -[John 20070205] why are we selecting these. Do we have more choices ? -[John 20070205] Should we leave SKOS and OWL or only one of them ?

MMI Device Ontology: A Community Development Project

graybeal — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 22:12:00 -0800

Description

MMI has begun development of an ontology aimed at classifying sensor/device types, and possibly extending into more detailed sensor terminology. This project is being developed by interested members of the marine science and data community. See the project web site for details.

MMI Ontology Repository Use Cases

graybeal — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:30:26 -0700

This document is a technical document that is evolutionary, and at times overcome by developments. This document will be reviewed and updated after the initial release of the BioPortal-based Ontology Registry in early October.

MMI Platforms Ontology

graybeal — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 22:11:00 -0800

Description

In 2006 MMI worked with volunteers to start developing a sensors and platforms ontology, using many other reference vocabularies but starting with a blank ontology. The first ontology that resulted is a platform ontology. Click on the link to the OWL file in Sourceforge to find the downloadable OWL file with this ontology.

Proposed Workshop Ideas

swatson — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 09:57:00 -0800

Three Workshop Types from NSF grant

Controlled Vocabulary Workshops: Describe where to find them, how to make new ones, and how to make them interoperable (e.g. publishing them in Web Ontology Language). Produce on-line materials from these workshops to make their content accessible to the community.

Science Metadata Training Presentations (Oceans '08)

carynn — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 18:49:07 -0700

The modules for the tutorial are as follows:

Introduction to Metadata

In this module, we will help scientists (and their teams) learn to use metadata to document their data sets. We will use typical oceanographic data sets to demonstrate this process. We encourage all scientists and data technicians who want to understand basic metadata principles to attend this training.

This project seeks to reconcile the differences among standard vocabularies that are widely used by the marine community. To achieve this, there is a need to:
