Enhanced Object-Based Production Conference part two

Enhanced Object-Based Production (EOBP) Conference Announcement

Overview of Enhanced Object-Based Production

Enhanced Object-Based Production (EOBP) is a data structuring methodology that focuses on organizing information around any "Portion of Reality" (POR). It is based on a solid foundation of ontology and semantics, allowing for structured and meaningful categorization of data. EOBP is flexible and scalable, suited to various types of data needs. It also includes error handling and features such as provenance, evidence, and warrant, aiming to improve data reliability. This methodology is adaptable to a wide range of real-world scenarios and concepts, effectively representing reality in datasets by indexing entities to specific locations and times.
