Announcement
The 2023 Basic Formal Ontology Summit Meeting will be held May 23rd-25th, 2023. The aims of the meeting are:
- to bring together researchers who have played an important role in the development and application of BFO, to highlight the practical impact and value of using BFO as a top-level architecture,
- to identify and work through outstanding issues experienced by users of BFO,
- to begin the creation of a set of BFO-conformant ontologies in the domain of government policy and data
Subsidiary goals are:
- to showcase real-world examples of incorporation of BFO in development pipelines and their practical impacts
- to promote collaboration across different groups of BFO users
- to share case studies illustrating challenges arising in BFO use, evaluation, interpretation, and revision
- to reveal differences in interpretation of BFO terms and relations, and of associated strategies for using BFO
- to share strategies of evaluation of BFO from different user bases
- to identify and disseminate strategies for improving the quality of BFO-based ontologies
