The published "WP4-Semantics - GitHub repository" was to manage work package nr 4 of the GeoERA Information Platform Project (GIP-P). This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 731166. Any information published reflects only the authors' view. The European Commission is not responsible for any use that may be made of the information or the materials published on this website.
GIP-P was established with the aim of setting up an information system to support the other GeoERA projects (GSPs) in organising, standardising, disseminating and safeguarding their results (background data, digital maps, geological models, reports, etc).
WP4-Semantics initiated, designed, tested the development of vocabulary data within the framework of the EGDI portal which was to support GeoERA projects. This included suggestions for a technical infrastructure for sustainable data storage, the organization of governance and maintenance of the vocabularies, as well as the technical possibilities of coding data sets with vocabulary (e.g. within a EGDI metadata catalogue). The main goals of the framework were (1) creating a geoscientific keyword thesaurus, (2) the processing of terminological project knowledge as a knowledge representation and publishing both as RDF Linked Open Data. These goals were essentially achieved. The currently available geoscientific GeoERA Keyword Thesaurus 2.1 already provides more than 2500 keywords that can be used by the GeoERA projects to index their datasets and documents. The final report describes the status quo of the project vocabulary task. There were 15 vocabularies created for 6 different GeoERA projects. Some project vocabularies are still being processed and web applications for the presentation of the use cases have not yet been developed or are in the test phase. Anyway, the existing data from the different GeoERA projects on a project vocabulary can now be used or reused for subsequent projects, e.g. the fault database. Taxonomies, classifications or categorizations that have already been started can be proposed in whole or in part for editing code lists or for extending future standards such as INSPIRE or GeoSciML. Overall, the results of this WP should provide a good basis for the entry of the geosciences into Linked Data and Semantic Web over the next few years.
