[esip-semantictech] NOAA Ontologies

[Pier Buttigieg]

Hi Justin,

While not a NOAA ontology, ENVO has begun to express oceanographic 
standards like CMECS (after a dialogue with their team). I'll be 
processing, unpacking, adding more CMECS content through the next few 
months. For example: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ENVO_01001329

We're also working with a small team from GOOS, UNESCO/IOC, JCOMM, 
SOCIB, IEEE, AWI, and GEOMAR to get the EOVs in ENVO and linked to the 
various systems the ontology encodes.

We do have some atmospheric content too. But this is less systematic.

Do let me know if there's anything in the environmental domain you'd 
like us to encode (e.g. standard classifications used by NOAA) or if 
NOAA would like us to help train a few of its staff to co-edit the 
relevant sections of the ontology (probably faster).

Best,
Pier

PS: ENVO is strongly linked to the United Nations SDG Interface Ontology 
which we develop in collaboration with UN Environment. In the SDGIO, we 
are weaving the strategic and societal goals of various organisations 
(e.g. the CGIAR and AWI) into the SDG framework. It may be interesting 
to get NOAA on the map.
