[Obo-envo] Environmental Process Ontology?

[Norman M. <mor...@cs...>]

Dear All,

As part of the NERC technologies proposal Dawn and I are putting together, and with a drive towards more orthogonal development of environmental related ontologies, we have discussed in the past the development of an Environmental Process Ontology, containing terms like acidification, deforestation, remediation...etc.

At this stage, it would be useful to know if there is anyone interested in being involved in the development of such an ontology? ...or any nominations for people who should really be approached. If anyone has concrete use cases where an Environmental Process Ontology (EnvPO) would be of benefit, these would also be great to circulate.

On a separate note we have had some limited feedback on the tool Dave has been developing to link EnvO and GAZ terms. We've decided to call it 'SpLinkedIn' (Spatially Linked In). You can keep monitoring developments here: http://tools.envotestsite.org and we're always keen for you to send in your suggestions for improvements.

All the best,
Norman
