NFDI4Ing Project

NFDI4Ing Terminology Service is a repository for engineering ontologies that aims to provide a single point of access to the latest ontology versions. You can browse engineering ontologies either through this website or via the Rest API. NFDI4Ing TS is developed and maintained by TIB as an extension of the TIB Central Terminology Service.

NFDI4Chem Project

The NFDI4Chem Terminology Service is a repository for chemistry and related ontologies providing a single point of access to the latest ontology versions. You can browse or search the ontologies and look into their terms and relations. The Terminology Service can be used either by humans throught the website or by machines via the TS API. The NFDI4Chem Terminology Service is developed and maintained by TIB - Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology. It is part of the service portfolio of the NFDI4Chem consortium within the National Research Data Infrastructure.

Project Homepage: https://www.nfdi4chem.de/
Domain-specific terminology service: https://terminology.nfdi4chem.de/ts/
Ontology Selection Criteria:
  • The ontology should provide terms and relations to describe research activities and research data in chemistry. We although considered terminologies, taxonomies and controlled vocabularies, as it might not be necessary to make full use of description logic to semantically describe research data depending on the involved stakeholders
  • The ontology should have been developed by or in cooperation with domain experts to ensure chemistry knowledge is codified accurately
  • The ontology should adhere to best practices in ontology development
  • The ontology should be FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable Reusable), i.e. indexed in a prominent registry, accessible via a permanent URL and provided with a documentation. The ontology must provide a machine-readable license information-. The ontology should be aligned with compatible upper ontologies and should be reusable in a modular way
  • The ontology should be actively and openly maintained
  • The ontology should be used in prominent applications

NFDI4Culture Project

The NFDI4Culture collection by TIB Terminology Service provides a selection of ontologies for representing research data on tangible and intangible cultural assets. The NFDI4Culture collection is developed and maintained by the Open Science Lab at TIB. It serves as one of the key sources for terminology search and entity recognition within Antelope, the annotation and terminology service tool developed by the Open Science Lab as part of the service portfolio of the NFDI4Culture consortium within the National Research Data Infrastructure.

Earth System Sciences

The ESS Terminology Service is a collection of Earth System Science terminologies and a single point of access to the latest terminology versions. The service provides researchers, repository staff, and everybody interested with the ability to describe their research results in a semantically correct, machine-understandable way. The ESS TS is being developed by the BITS project titled “BluePrints for the Integration of Terminology Services in Earth System Sciences” and is maintained by TIB as an extension of the TIB Central Terminology Service. It can be used either by humans through the website or by machines via the TS API.
