This repository contains backup files for various ontologies that are developped as part of multiple EU projects (WeKnowIt, ROBUST, DecarboNet, COMRADES, etc.).

The CURIO Vocabulary is a general purpose ontology designed for managing the collaborative discussion of user generated resources in a unified and collaborative fashion. Despite being developed in the context of the WeKnowIt project, the vocabulary can be easily adapted for a particular need thanks to its flexible resource model.
CURIO can be considered as an aggregative ontology since it aggregates and connect many concept from different standard ontology in a formalised way. This vocabulary reuse most of its concept from the SIOC vocabulary but incorporate many classes and properties from other ontology such as DCTerms, GeoOWL, CommonTag and OPO. The ontology is based around the concept of Resource. A Resource is a specific class that holds a user generated content. Currently different class exists. Particularly, the Document and Event classes enables the combination of virtual events with a real one.

As an open community the World Wide Web has facilitated the contribution and sharing of ideas spanning a large information network. The visibility of this information brings along the problem of what to trust and whom to trust. So far it is up to web users to make a conscious decision whether to believe what they are reading or not.
Contrary to previous approaches, the Veracity Ontology enable the assertion of proof behind a trust decision. Particularly, it introduces three different trust models that can work together such has a basic TrustworthinesAssertion, a AgentKnowledgeProofAssertion and a DirectKnowledgeProofAssertion.

During emergency crises it is imperative to collect, organise, analyse and share critical information between individuals and humanitarian organisations. Although different models and platforms have been created for helping this particular issues, existing work tend to focus on only one or two of the previous matters.
The DoRES ontology is designed for representing information sources, reports and event situation based on reports.

The EnergyUse ontology is a model for representing the public content of the energyuse.eu website (see evhart/energyuse). In particular, it allows the publication of discussions related to energy consumption and the modelling of actual aggregated energy consumption measures of home appliances.
This document represents the Energy Use ontology definition of the most important entities and atributes required for publishing content similar to the one produced in the EnergyUse platform.
