[2G2-OS-10b-03] Development of Crop Vocabulary to facilitate interoperability among agricultural IT systems
Keywords:Crop vocabulary
To facilitate interoperability of knowledge between agricultural IT systems, Crop Vocabulary; CVO has been developed. CVO provides a list of properties such as primary name, scientific name, synonyms for describing the crop. Most of primary names in CVO denote the cultivated plants based on the taxonomic classification, but some of them denote the groups of cultivated plants according to both practical purpose and their characteristics. CVO has links to other standards in agricultural chemical industry, food industry, academic society. This result shows CVO can support data integration from different sources.
