University of Toronto Transportation Research Centre - iCity Ontology

An ontology for the representation and exchange of data amongst modules used in Transportation Planning

City of Toronto - Digital City Group - Toronto Common Data Model Project

Goal is to create a common data model for the communication of city data amongst divisions/departments and with external stakeholders.
Divisions involved include hard and software services plus financial services. The model is based on the ISO/IEC 5087 City Data Model standards series we lead.

City of Toronto - Toronto Water - Asset Management Ontology Project

Developing an ontology for: 1) modelling water and sanitation physical assets; and 2) Physical asset documentation management.

City of Toronto - Physical Infrastructure Division - Coordinating Large Scale Infrastructure projects

Applying coordination theory, ontologies and constraints to address coordination problems that lead to massive delays in infrastructure projects.

Common Approach - Impact Modelling - Common Impact Data Standards Common Approach is a consortium of over 100 Social Purposes Organizations, Social sector software vendors, and government funding agencies.

Goal is to create a data standard for representing Impact Models and reporting on their performance, i.e., Outcomes and Indicators.
Other organizations include: Salesforce, Microsoft, Carleton U, ….

Digital Supercluster - Helpseeker Inc - Compass Project

This project has multiples tasks that we are responsible for:
1) Compass Social Services Sector Ontology;
2)Social Needs Marketplace for matching supply to demand;
