Dear Matthew,
Could you expand on that example please? It would be nice to know much more detail about how the ontology helped the project in specific and startling detail. I haven’t heard of an ontology project of large size (i.e., far bigger than Dublin Core), so if you could expound on how big the ontology is, on what effort was required to develop, test, evaluate, and validate the ontology against the oil industry problems that were solved by it, that could be a very useful way to bring our discussion on this board into greater focus.
Also, what would have happened in the event that project had been performed another way, i.e., without ontology as the focus, but instead on the problems being solved as the focus. Then on what the economic consequences might have been without using the ontology in the project, but doing it in the usual way. Even one successful case could get us all better appraised of the value of ontologies, at least in their potential.
Thanks,
-Rich

Dear Rich,
That’s not true.
We have long discussed how ontologies make “interoperability” easier, but so far there is not one example of it.
In the oil industry at least EPISTLE and ISO 15926 have been used successfully to support interoperability between engineering systems in particular, but also other sorts of systems delivering $millions in benefits. There have been tens of such projects, not just the odd one or two.
