[Esip-preserve] Fwd: [Esip-earthcollaboratory] ontological concepts for science

[Hua, Hook (398C)]

The PROV-ES working group is currently working on some of these concepts and their relationships in the context of provenance. This spreadsheet [1] has a list of concepts that were created based on a set of Earth science use cases and from extending the W3C PROV starting point ontology terms [2] and extended ontology terms [3]. Many of the concepts were extracted from the PCCS [4]. From the initial concepts, we started creating a taxonomy [4] and are just beginning to generate the relationships in a COE concept map to form an initial content model. We also plan to provide an encoding scheme (RDF possibly?) for the content model later on.

We have a long list of "concepts" that are part of a matrix being developed by NASA ESDSWG's PROV-ES WG.

Hi all,

We have been putting together a set of ontological concepts  that describe different aspects of the earth science process.  The idea is to allow users to create structured information concepts to organize information and data. We have come up with a number of concepts:

Program  - a collection of projects, a funding umbrella, etc e.g. - NACP, NSF-OPP, NASA-Icebridge Project - Typically some funded entity with a particular focus Site - A physical site on earth. Might be an instrument site, a field project site, etc.
Campaign - some intensive operational period in the field Site visit - a short term visit to some site for data gathering purposes Field note - A description of the conditions in the field Dataset - some uniform collection of files


What other constructs or concepts are people familiar with?  In the ESC discussions we've talked about experiments, etc.

-Jeff
