This workshop is finished (🙏 to all participants, more than 50 participants on the first day, more than 30 on the second day!). |
On the 13th and the 15th of April 2021, a workshop was held for an exchange of views on how to achieve a shared understanding of concepts - terminology and definitions - across domains.
Have you seen a term defined differently in one place from another? Do you use or manage standardized terminologies/glossaries/thesauri? How are these definitions mapped? Perhaps existing terminologies/glossaries/thesauri can be made more useful in your day-to-day work.
Many domains, such as geospatial, electro-technical, business and telecommunications, and others maintain approved terms and definitions through well-defined procedures, especially at standardization bodies and consortia. We believe building mutually-agreed links between concepts across domains would be useful. How should we tie the concepts together, how can they be maintained and governed over time, and who is allowed to do so?
The workshop will focus on discussing a framework and procedures for tackling these issues and work out any technical details at a later time.

The Danish Agency for Data Supply and Efficiency is tasked with ensuring the presence of a sound foundation of data underpinning decisions and major transitions in society. In the past, this entailed updating the topographical maps, which served as the basis for public administration in Denmark. Their role today, is to ensure that data can effectively meet the new challenges and unleash the potential of a digital society. This requires interoperable public sector data, which can be combined and used with the geographic data foundation. Consequently, the task of the Danish Agency for Data Supply and Efficiency - as a data producer, data distributor, data partner and basic data authority - is to provide the data foundation for a digital Denmark. |
