Why is this topic important?

Ontologies are structured frameworks that represent knowledge as a set of concepts within a domain and the relationships between those concepts. They are used to model the structure of information and facilitate understanding, sharing, and integration of knowledge across different systems and stakeholders. Ontologies are important in wind energy because they provide a standardised framework for representing and communicating complex information, enhancing interoperability among diverse systems and stakeholders. They enable the integration of heterogeneous data sources, support informed decision-making, and facilitate knowledge management.

What are we going to talk about?

In this one-hour webinar, we will introduce you to the concept of ontologies, give you an update on our new ontology hosting portal TechnoPortal, and then run through the process for creating and publishing your own ontology on the TechnoPortal:

5’ Introduction to IEA Wind Task 43; Sarah Barber, Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences

15’ Introduction to ontologies and why they are important in wind energy; Yuriy Marykovskiy, Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences

30’ Demonstration of a process for creating and publishing your own ontology; Yuriy Marykovskiy, Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences
