An Ontology for Ecological Urbanism. SUM+Ecology

As the complexity and abundance of city data increases, reusable semantic models that can integrate heterogeneous data sources in a lightweight manner enable a holistic view of the city data, which is key to Urban Ecology. Our multi-disciplinary team has built an ontology for Urban Ecology that not only captures a field-validated urban model and certification process, but also explores the reuse of semantic models and their interaction with domain experts.
