DINGO: an ontology for projects and grants linked data

Services and resources built around Semantic Web, semantically-enabled applications and linked (open) data technologies have been increasingly impacting research and research-related activities in the last years. Development has been intense along several directions, for instance in "semantic publishing" [36], but also in the aspects directed toward the reproducibility and attribution of research and scholarly outputs, leading also to the interest in having Open Science Graphs interconnected at the global level [21]. All this has become more and more essential to research practices, also in light of the so-called reproducibility crisis affecting a number of research fields (see, for instance, the huge list of latest studies at https://reproduciblescience.org/2019). In fact, the demand of easily and automatically parsable, interoperable and processable data goes beyond the purely academic sphere. The research landscape comprises a vast number and type of activities, with multiple and diverse stakeholders, actors and with impact on several aspects and sectors of society.
