Popis: The use of ontology presents a novel data integration resource, when centred in semantic definitions and the need for interoperability. Results from previews works indicate that ontologies can drive knowledge acquisition processes for the purpose of comprehensive, transportable machine understanding and knowledge management. Applied to the biodiversity domain, ontologies can be a valuable resource for strategic planning and its contribution toward conservation of the Amazon region. This work presents a biodiversity domain ontology developed at the National Institute for Amazonian Research (INPA) using biological data as its object of study.
