Scaling OWL Ontology Creation: Lessons and Best Practices

·Apr 17, 2023 05:30 AM

Anyone have lessons learned or other promising practices from scaling OWL Ontology creation using protege? Currently I'm the only person who updates the ontology, but am looking to plan for additional date curators. Another question: has anyone started then grown beyond using Protege to edit their own owl ontologies? What ended up working?

There are other tools. I've compiled a list, which can be acquired, at this link. In general, it depends on the situation: the desired implementation language, the complexity of the ontology, requirements, use-cases, support, etc. A positive thing about Protege is that it is free. A negative thing is that it has a number of limitations, some of which are due to the embedded implementation language of OWL (which is itself quite limited).
