[Esip-soil-informatics] soil controlled vocabulary enquiry

Mon Feb 15 09:21:26 EST 2021

Kathi, Can I just say that I’m very excited for your presentation next month!

Thinking more carefully about the subsampling… You might take a look at the data model for ‘fractionation’ that ISRaD has developed https://soilradiocarbon.org/database_structure/ It was primarily designed for physiochemical fractionation so might be a bit overkill for a general purpose tool kit.

If you're working in the INSPIRE Context, you may want to take a closer look at the sampling aspect of the O&M Standard that is utilized in the INSPIRE Soil model as this does provide basic sample concepts. It doesn't break it down into soil specific samples as its a high level conceptual standard, but does provide the necessary hooks as a starting point. I'm happy to advise a bit on these aspects as I'm one of the chairs of the OGC O&M SWG (and am fairly familiar with all the INSPIRE models)

I DO think collecting a list of the usual sample types would be most valuable, same pertains to the sampling methods (and wider, measurement methods). Having a common registry with these terms would make all other data work that much easier!

CC-RCN might be somewhere to check out for sample method https://serc.si.edu/coastalcarbon/database-structure . I don’t think their vocabulary is registered but it’s the only one I’ve seen from a soil research data product that has sampling method coded in some way. I’m absolutely certain that they would be delighted to register this section with ENVO or something similar.

I’m afraid I can’t help you with the second one. Most of that information I’ve seen in general ‘notes’ and tends not to be uniformly coded.

Hello soil information folks,

I hope you are all well. I am sorry to bother you with this enquiry by email, but I’m hoping amongst this community of experts someone may be able to help me out.

To those of you who use soil related controlled vocabularies, can someone point me toward

  1.  collection/s with soil sampling methods eg ‘coring’ ‘at depth sampling’, and
  2.  collection/s to describe the types of physical samples that observations are made on (which may be stored or thrown out once an observation is made on them) such as physical soil cores, subsamples etc.

These are distinct from soil features, for which we are using INPIRE http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/featureconcept<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__inspire.ec.europa.eu_featureconcept&d=DwMF-g&c=sJ6xIWYx-zLMB3EPkvcnVg&r=cG4e22DhE_24WgV67TY07bX35Pu84XKMIq_1hkQnll4&m=rkJUE_dVM22kwVByO2znmYPlsrG4Y1LnNoEos-PkCho&s=AaZ-OTohF2fqKBdWo1wdPCb5rYYFsikjP4BgUB-7BtU&e=> .

Ideally, these would be as controlled vocabulary terms that are readable to humans and machines

I've searched high and low - Perhaps the creation of a soil ontology will help ease some of these pain points! I’ve added to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11oY2TIQIVnaNYfG-nXiOfWyQ17uVlReNX4qrdOYddeg/edit#gid=0<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_spreadsheets_d_11oY2TIQIVnaNYfG-2DnXiOfWyQ17uVlReNX4qrdOYddeg_edit-23gid-3D0&d=DwMF-g&c=sJ6xIWYx-zLMB3EPkvcnVg&r=cG4e22DhE_24WgV67TY07bX35Pu84XKMIq_1hkQnll4&m=rkJUE_dVM22kwVByO2znmYPlsrG4Y1LnNoEos-PkCho&s=32BU6qIuKlXCfe9Mv7yHwDEkux24t8kTvX_SuV3Sf8I&e=> .

If anyone is able to offer any advice here I am most grateful for your time

Best Regards,
Megan
