As part of the OntologySummit2010 series of activities, three online questionnaires have been developed and launched to help collect community/expert opinion and insight on the subject matter. Ontology summit conveners and invited experts are invited to provide their input through these online survey forms on/before the deadline of Monday 22-Feb-2010 (end-of-day US Eastern Standard Time, UTC -5:00).
The three questionnaires are designed to:
- Conduct a survey on present ontology education/training content and quality.
- Conduct a survey to elicit information about the knowledge and skills ontologists need, or are expected to have, in a variety of working contexts.
- Conduct a real-time delphi study to elicit expert opinion and shared vision on the future of ontologists, their education and the field of ontology. [*to access this questionnaire for the first time, you will have to register yourself first ... and then, when prompted, enter the study code: "ontology"]
