Seems that this may be of interest to the ESIP STC people....

See near the end for the Live Stream link - note that interaction does not always work well...

> LEADER: Jim McCusker (TWC)
> VIDEO: <http://bit.ly/twed_twc_rpi <http://bit.ly/twed_twc_rpi>> (TWed video streams)

> Please join us this Weds, 06 Mar as Jim McCusker leads us in a discussion of some of the more subtle, practical, and (perhaps) provocative aspects of ontology design. 
> 
> DESCRIPTION: Ontology design methods can vary from creating lots of properties (like in schema.org <http://schema.org/>, Wikidata, or ontologies designed from UML) to few properties, as in Semanticscience Integrated Ontology, Basic Formal Ontology, and PROV-O. We will explore the consequences of these design decisions and try to establish some general guidelines for when a new property should be introduced into a data model, ontology, or knowledge graph, and when general purpose properties might be more useful.
> 
> BIO: Jim McCusker is the Director of Data Operations for the Tetherless World Constellation and is the architect of the Whyis knowledge graph framework, which supports the development, management, and research of knowledge graphs through provenance-first approaches to generalized inference, knowledge curation, and user interfaces. He is especially interested in using knowledge graphs to further cancer informatics.
