[ANN] nature.com/ontologies - July 2015 Release

Hi:

As promised in a couple posts to the list earlier this year [1,2] we have now resumed dataset publishing (following on from the 2012 releases on data.nature.com [3,4]) and have added a new snapshot of bibliography metadata for nature.com articles to the Nature.com Ontologies portal:

    http://nature.com/ontologies/

Specifically, as announced yesterday [5], we have released 170 years of bib data for all nature.com articles and contributors over the period 1845-2015. We expect to release new snapshots periodically.

The release notes are copied below.

Tony

Release:

* We've resumed publishing of datasets. We're now making available complete instance datasets for articles (1.2 m) and contributors (2.7 m). These datsets are linked to the DOI and ORCID datasets. (These datasets replace the historic datasets from 2012.)

* We've now added our core and domain models to GitHub projects and brought them under version control: public-npg-core-ontology  GitHub and public-npg-domain-ontology GitHub

* We've improved our documentation. A whole new Technical Notes section has been added. Some material from the homepage (e.g. Background, Licenses, Namespaces) has been moved there, and new material has been added (e.g. Annotations, Mappings, Naming Policy, Versions).

* We've improved our data mappings. The Subjects Ontology is now 100% mapped to DBpedia. See Mappings.

* We've added a reference in our Links section to our new colleagues at Springer and their LOD for Conferences in Computer Science.
