Foundations of astrogeology

In this exciting release, we have added a set of foundational classes for astrogeological semantics and planetary science, pusuant to further alignment with the relaunched SWEET ontologies, now under the coordination of the ESIP Federation. This is a further step towards bridging the OBO Foundry and Library Federation to ESIP's semantic technologies, promoting interoperation across the life- and planetary science communities. Mini-Neptunes, hot Jupiters, and mega-Earths all emerged from the protoplanetary mix which we'll continue to weave into the OBO semantic layer, along with tectonics, climates, and weather phenomena.

Ecological refinements

In addition, we celebrate the launch of the Ecological Core Ontology (ECOCORE) at the ClearEarth Hackathon with our long overdue ecosystem.

Through ECOCORE, we look forward to creating a semantic rallying point for the ecological community, as called for in workshops such as LifeWatch and EU DATs Ontology & Semantic Web for Biodiversity & Ecosystem Research. We're working closely with the recently renovated Population and Community Ontology, the Ontology of Biological Attributes, and the Neuro Behavior Ontology to build a robust and interoperating resource. More information is available here

Lacustrine extensions

With contributions from @jmkeil aligned with work in the AquaDiva project, we have expanded and further axiomatised our lake-related hierarchies. As always, more work remains to be done, but we're happy to present a more exhaustive list of lake types and their axiomatisation to the community.

Technical improvements

• We've added an envoAstro subset to gather up celestial content.
• An easy-to-parse TSV file of terms in our various subsets is now available here.
• More handy reports are available (and documented) here
• Our envo.json file has been fixed
