Join us for an informal VoCamp event dedicated to creating lightweight ontologies. Engage in hands-on technical work, discussions, and practical outputs. Explore practical approaches to vocabulary development through paper-first modeling. Benefit from brief reviews, tutorials, and breakout sessions. Connect with experts and like-minded individuals. Enhance your knowledge of ontology engineering and linked data. Unleash your creativity and contribute to the development of valuable vocabularies.

Intro to the June DC VoCamp A few words from the Organizers: Ed Summer, Todd Pehle and Gary Berg-Cross
What are VoCamps • VoCamp -informal events (unconference) • oriented to hands-on technical work and practical outputs • dedicated time creating lightweight vocabularies/ontologies • good enough models for people to start using • Approach • "paper first, laptops second" format, where the modeling is done initially on paper and only later committed to code. • However we have the help of Revelytix and their Knoodl tool • presentations and demos are short, highly on-topic to the vocabulary development process, and limited in number.

GeoVoCampSouthampton2011 • GeoSPARQL feature/geometry & spatial relationships model, • Scaled Vocabulary • Feature types/points of interest, • Events/time/ChangeOver Time • Auxiliary Vocabularies
Scale Vocab Example Interest: There appears to be a need for a vocabulary that allows a spec. for the publication and consumption of a discretised view of data. • Definition: A Scale is comprised of a number of defined Points arranged in a specific order. • Example Scales for “Things” range across • None • One • A few • Some • Lots • Oodles
Portion of Scale Model scale:Scale a rdfs:Class; rdfs:subClassOf scovo:Dataset ; rdfs:label "Scale" ; comment "A Scale comprises of a number of defined Points arranged in a specific order."
Examples of Vocabulary Development • scale:hasPoint (members); • rdfs:subPropertyOf scovo:datasetOf ; • rdfs:label "has point" ; • rdfs:comment "Associates a Scale with the Point(s) of which it is comprised." • rdfs:domain scale:Scale ; • rdfs:range scale:Point .
Nearness Model- uses Scale Model Scale of nearest, near and close
