- Title:
- Adopting the UAT as an IVOA vocabulary

- Publisher:
- IVOA
- Description:
- The Unified Astronomy Thesaurus (UAT) provides a comprehensive, interlinked set of concepts relevant for astronomy and astrophysics using SKOS. It is taken up in the Virtual Observatory at least for registry subject keywords. For various reasons, it is desirable to have the UAT available subject to the constraints laid down in the IVOA Vocabularies in the VO 2 specification. This Note describes the rationale and the details of the UAT adoption by the IVOA.

- IVOA
- Description:
- In this document, we discuss practices related to the use of RDF-based consensus vocabularies in the Virtual Observatory, that is the creation, publication, maintenance, and consumption of hierarchical word lists agreed upon within the IVOA. To cover the wide range of use cases envisoned, we define different vocabulary types for informal knowledge organisation on the one hand, and strict hierarchies of classes and properties on the other. While the framework rests on the solid foundations of W3C RDF, provisions are made to facilitate using IVOA vocabularies without specific RDF tooling. Non-normative appendices detail the current vocabulary-related tooling.

- VOiDOI DOI registration web service
- Short Name:
- DOI registration

- Description:
- This service lets VO data publishers assign Digital Object Identifiers to their services, greatly enhancing their citability. Since technically, the DOI references the registry record, this service can only be used on properly registered services.

- VOResource: an XML Encoding Schema for Resource Metadata
- Short Name:
- VOResource
- Date:
- 16 Apr 2025 09:07:32
- Publisher:
- International Virtual Observatory Alliance
- Description:
- This document describes an XML encoding standard for IVOA Resource Metadata, referred to as VOResource. This schema is primarily intended to support metadata exchange between interoperable registries and resource discovery within them. However, any application that needs to describe resources may use this schema. In this document, we define the types and elements that make up the schema in close alignment to the metadata terms defined in Resource Metadata for the Virtual Observatory (Hanisch 2007), but also taking into account other metadata standards as well as experiences from the operation of the VO Registry. We also describe the general model for the schema and explain how it is extended to add new metadata terms and describe more specific types of resources.
