Utilizing Ontology Structures To Curate the DOE-NETL Carbon Storage Open Database

Abstract

The specialized ontology for the Carbon Storage Open Database will enable more rapid assignment of appropriate symbology standards for visualization improvements, optimize topical and spatial tagging within keywords, and improve flexibility for utilization in existing data repositories such as EDX. This effort also aims to establish a foundation for utilization of ontologies for organization of other data related to geologic carbon storage in the future.
