SCO-U | Summary | AgroPortal

General information

SCO is a middle-level ontology, representing the major theoretical challenges to sustainability: 1) The polysemy of the term sustainability. 2) The relationship between sustainability and sustainable development. 3) The complexity underlying sustainability. SCO aims to play a pivotal role in harmonizing and integrating top-level and domain ontologies regarding sustainability., SCO V1.1.0 aligns with two Top-Level Ontologies (TLOs), Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) and Unified Foundational Ontology (UFO). SCO V1.1.0 is comprised of two segments: SCO-B (B for BFO) and SCO-U (U for UFO). SCO-B aligns the SCO vocabulary with BFO (as SCO V1.0.0). SCO-U aligns the SCO vocabulary with gUFO (UFO implementation in the Web Ontology Language (OWL)). This file provides SCO-U segment.
