English abstract

This paper introduces a cooperation between the Basel Register of Thesauri, Ontologies & Classifications (BARTOC) and project coli-conc to provide information about Knowledge Organization Systems, which “encompass all types of schemes for organizing information and promoting knowledge management”, in uniform form. The result is a proper metadata scheme, the JSKOS data format, and an API to connect and access connecting terminology registries so terminologies can be discovered and explored at one place. The paper has been accepted by TKE 2016 - 12th International Conference on Terminology and Knowledge Engineering (see http://sf.cbs.dk/gtw/conferences_terminology_and_knowledge_engineering/tke_2016_copenhagen) and will be published in the conference proceedings.
