TLDR
The GeoLink modular ontology consists of an interlinked collection of ontology design patterns engineered as the result of a collaborative modeling effort, and it is discussed how data integration can be achieved using the patterns while respecting the existing heterogeneity within the participating repositories.Abstract:
GeoLink is one of the building block projects within EarthCube, a major effort of the National Science Foundation to establish a next-generation knowledge infrastructure for geosciences. As part of this effort, GeoLink aims to improve data retrieval, reuse, and integration of seven geoscience data repositories through the use of ontologies. In this paper, we report on the GeoLink modular ontology, which consists of an interlinked collection of ontology design patterns engineered as the result of a collaborative modeling effort. We explain our design choices, present selected modeling details, and discuss how data integration can be achieved using the patterns while respecting the existing heterogeneity within the participating repositories.read more

AgKit4EE: A toolkit for agricultural land use modeling of the conterminous United States based on Google Earth Engine
TL;DR: This paper presents the AgKit4EE toolkit to facilitate the use of the Cropland Data Layer (CDL) product over the GEE platform and the experimental results suggest that the proposed software can significantly reduce the workload for modelers who conduct geospatial agricultural and environmental modeling with CDL data.
