Dear all, (01)
Aleksandra Sojic has created a first version of the meta ontology, see
https://github.com/ontohub/OOR_Ontohub_API/blob/master/Domain_fields.owl
- use "raw" for downloading and viewing with Protégé:
https://raw.github.com/ontohub/OOR_Ontohub_API/master/Domain_fields.owl (02)
This ontology provides a meta-classification that according to the
domain subjects distributes domain-ontologies into the domain-specific
classes. As the reference classification we have considered several
international standards which are used to classify domain fields. The
International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED) has been
selected as the most appropriate reference for the specification of the
(subject) categories within the OntoHub. ISCED is a member of the United
Nations International Family of Economic and Social Classifications and
is the reference classification for organizing education programmes and
related qualifications by levels and fields of education (ref. ISCED).
In particular, we have used the last version of ISCED (the final draft
published in June 2013) as it provides a hierarchy of knowledge domains
suitable for covering comprehensively the corresponding
ontology-modelling fields. (03)
The Domain-fields-ontology has to be developed further in order to
include several other specifications, especially considering the domains
which experience a significant expansion in the ontology development,
e.g. Life Sciences. (04)
Please find attached a graphical visualisation of the recently published
Domain-fields ontology. (05)
Best, Till (06)
