Goals of the Product
The aim of EcoPlots is to harmonise plot-based ecology data from different sources to enable integrated search and access to data based on different jurisdictions, data sources, feature types, parameters and temporal extent.
The EcoPlots is developed using a semantic data integration approach; each data source is mapped to the TERN Plot ontology. Datasets are generally received from custodians in various forms, including PostgreSQL database and CSV file format. In the data ingestion process, each source dataset is mapped to a TERN Plot ontology, including identifying and mapping domain feature types, parameters and categorical values to TERN-controlled vocabularies, performing data validation routines and resolving taxonomic names. All data are organised in Resource Description Framework (RDF) and stored in a triple store.
