地球科学知识体系编辑平台

An Editing Platform of Geoscience Knowledge System

随着信息技术和地球科学的发展,地球科学领域数据快速增长,积累了海量数据,亟需建立领域知识图谱促进地球科学大数据的利用。因此深时数字地球(DDE)提出构建地学知识库和知识图谱,为未来的地学研究提供新一代的基础科研工具,促进研究范式的变革。文章回顾了知识图谱的发展历史,对主要知识体系构建工具进行了调研。结合地球科学学科特点,梳理了地球科学知识体系对构建工具的需求,并设计和实现了一个面向地球科学知识体系的专业编辑平台:"地球科学知识体系编辑平台"。平台具有操作简单、协同编辑、协同审核等一系列特点,基本满足地球科学知识体系的建设需求,填补了这一领域的空白。平台上线以来,已经有18个地球科学领域的专业学科人员在线协同构建,极大提高了地球科学知识图谱建设的效率。在此基础上,结合目前地球科学知识图谱建设状况,从技术角度出发,对地球科学知识体系编辑平台的后续发展方向进行了讨论。

With the development of geoscience and its related technology, geoscience data grow rapidly and a large amount have been accumulated in the recent years. To establish domain knowledge graph to promote the utilization of those data becomes an urgent task. This paper, serving a geoscientific international project, Deep-time Digital Earth, proposes a geoscience knowledge base as well as knowledge graph to provide a new tool for future geoscience research and further, promote the research paradigm. Development history of knowledge graph has been reviewed and main knowledge system editing tools have been fully evaluated. Based on the characteristics of geoscience, authors analyzed the requirements of geoscience knowledge system editing, and constructed a professional editing platform for the system. The platform owns the advantages such as simple operation and collaborative applications for review and editing, which not only meets the requirements of geoscience knowledge system but also fills a gap in this field. Since it formally launched last year, scientific researchers from 18 subjects of geoscience have participated in the online editing, and the geoscience knowledge system is progressing with this great effort and efficiency. Based on experiences from the system users and constructers, authors suggested the further improving plans for the platform from a technical perspective.
