Message: 1 Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2011 11:21:50 +0100 From: ?amonn ? Tuama (GBIF) eotuama@gbif.org Subject: [tdwg] GBIF KOS report published To: tdwg@lists.tdwg.org Message-ID: 00d101cbc843$29db19e0$7d914da0$@org Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
The GBIF-commissioned white paper on Knowledge Organisation Systems (i.e., Controlled Vocabularies, Ontologies, Thesauri, etc.) for biodiversity informatics is now available at: http://links.gbif.org/gbif_kos_whitepaper_v1.pdf. The white paper provides a set of recommendations for consideration by GBIF and these are expected to inform the development of the GBIF work programme, both in 2011 and in our 3rd (2012-2016) five-year phase.
Feedback on the white paper is welcomed. Please use the dedicated page (http://community.gbif.org/pg/pages/view/11223/gbif-kos-report) of the KOS Interest Group section (http://community.gbif.org/pg/groups/11222/kos-interest-group/) on the GBIF Community site.
