I was recently talking about my experiences with OWL over on ITO, and so have decided to go ahead and put my OWL ontology out there, and invite comment. I am quite open to criticism, as I am sure that I will need to revise this, but here it is.
The aim of this ontology is to clarify some of the classes of owl:thing that concern us here at Colourphon.
We are describing the colours found within digital images. Note: I use the term ‘digital image’ as opposed to just ‘image’ as we are specifically dealing with data gleaned from digital representations of images, and not images in any other format.
Currently the ontology deals with DigitalImage, the image itself; Pixel, a point within the image; Coordinate, the location of a pixel; RGBValue, the RGB value of the pixel; ColourName, the word or phrase used to describe the colour and GuessedColourName, A word or phrase used to describe the colour (but that word or phrase may not be accurate).
BTW, this ontology is modelled using Protégé 4, if you want to see it as I see it…
If you are aware of any work already in this area, then please do let us know.
