This section includes the results of the questionnaire “Towards a Comprehensive Overview of Ontologies and Vocabularies for Research on Wheat” conducted by the Wheat Data Interoperability Working Group (WDIWG) of the Research Data Alliance (RDA) from December 2014 to January 2015.

WDIWG’s goal is to provide a common framework for describing, representing, linking and publishing Wheat Research with respect to open data standards. To achieve this goal, the survey was sent to developers, curators and managers of ontologies and vocabularies which could be used for data annotation in the Wheat Research area.

The aim of the survey was to collect to information about the visibility, interoperability, domain, content and other technical aspects of relevant ontologies and vocabularies. The information collected will be used in recommendations to wheat researchers around the world.
