Vision of the Semantic Technologies Committee

Promote research and development of semantic technologies in support of Earth science data discovery, dissemination, and analysis
Collaborate with ESIP members, working groups, clusters, and standing committees on semantic related topics
Foster sharing and reuse of ontologies and controlled vocabularies
To provide a collaborative environment for the development of ontologies and ontology-based standards
To maintain a long-term agenda and roadmap for evaluation of semantic technologies within ESIP
To collaborate with external agencies, on behalf of ESIP, in regards to semantic technologies
