How can I suggest an ontology for inclusion in the OpenAIRE Graph?

walgidio

I’m currently developing an ontology to model optimization algorithms, including their parameters, the problems they solve, and performance metrics (OWL/RDF). I would like to ask two related questions:

What is the official procedure to suggest an ontology for inclusion in the OpenAIRE Graph, or to make it interoperable with OpenAIRE services?
Should I register it in FAIRsharing or LOV first?
Is there any way to declare compatibility with the OpenAIRE Graph Ontology?
Can the ontology be referenced or reused in linked metadata (e.g., in Zenodo or research graph nodes)?

Hello,

As I mentioned in this other post, OpenAIRE functions as an aggregator rather than a repository. This means that to have your work included in the OpenAIRE Graph, you can publish it in one of our compatible repositories (such as your institutional repository or Zenodo) with the appropriate metadata and identifiers. OpenAIRE will then collect and index your research outputs.

If you're specifically interested in having your ontology used for tagging products in the Graph, please contact us directly at https://www.openaire.eu/helpdesk to discuss potential collaboration opportunities within a project framework.
