Controlled vocabulary

Overview

A controlled vocabulary (CV) is being developed to improve discoverability of software registered in the IMCR. Colin is leading this effort and can be reached at colin.smith@wisc.edu if you have comments or questions.

Action items

  • Use the IMCR CV
  • Develop the IMCR CV by suggesting new categories, terms, and relationships between terms to Colin, or contribute directly to this Google sheet
  • Get software terms form Kepler ontology (Kristin is doing this).
  • Expand CV coverage to all relevant software attributes:
    • Domain specific keywords (e.g. community survey, meteorological).
    • Software maturity (e.g. development, staging, production)
