Action Items

  • Hook - connect with Peter on a good time for SW cluster business meeting

Bioportal @ ORNL

  • We should get a list of potential ontologies to pass to Lin
  • Are there some criteria for what a "shareable ontology" might be?
    • An entry barrier to getting ontologies in may be too preventative
  • Should this focus on micro-ontologies (small, reusable components)?
  • What is the distinction between ESIP Commons and ontology portal?
    • ESIP Commons may ingest portal
    • The ontology portal is a source of advertising for your ontology
  • The portal comes with all kinds of tools for visualizing, querying, etc.
  • Is there a use case that is supposed to be solved using the ontology portal?
    • i.e., should they be targeted at a specific kind of use (can an ontology be too specific?)
    • The portal will provide a functional infrastructure for the SW Cluster to review/find ontologies
  • We want to foster sharing, and limit the overhead for sharing
  • List of initial ontologies:
    • Ruth: 5 sea ice and sea ice data related ontologies
    • Beth: initial ontology for data products as ASDC
    • Chris: DQSS ontology, MSDA ontology
  • Should there be an engineering practices associated with the portal? (e.g., versioning)
    • Is it even possible to follow a consistent versioning across all of ESIP?
  • As an ESIP cluster should we put together a best practices, including:
    • Versioning
    • Namespaces
    • Modularity
    • etc.
  • Idea is to collaboratively modify an ontology as well.
  • One of the key benefits of the Semantic Web is to connect data across organizational structures

SWEET and GCMD discussion

  • Where is SWEET going next?
  • Is there a formal governance model for SWEET?
  • Many people in EarthCube community interested in the future of SWEET

Data Quality ontologies governance by cluster

  • Makes sense to separate Data Quality and SWEET ontology governance (as SWEET is an upper level ontology)
  • Use DQSS and MDSA ontologies as starting points for data quality ontology governance
  • Both DQSS and MDSA are mid-level, use case driven ontologies
  • When looking at governance for use case driven ontology, stakeholders need to be involved (not so much for SWEET)
  • Should we give up the ToolMatch Talkoot for the summer meeting?
  • Can this be put on hold until after the summer meeting?
  • We can use the process of putting the MDSA/DQSS ontologies in Bioportal, we can develop the governance along the way
  • Chris will be leading this after the summer meeting

Planning for the ToolMatch Talkoot and Summer

  • Discussion for governance model at Summer Meeting?
  • There are no scheduled sessions for SW cluster business meetings
    • Not a lot of conflict on Tuesday morning... (could we get an extra room?)
    • 5ish on Thursday will be good (there will be EarthCube people there)
  • On Weds., there is a hands-on session regarding the Toolmatch use case
  • Discussed Callimachus and Dydra
