An ontology and inventory of geopolitical entities such as nations and their components (states, provinces, districts, counties) and the actual physical territories over which they have jurisdiction. We thus distinguish and assign different identifiers to the US in "The US declared war on Germany" vs. the US in "The plane entered US airspace".

Local identifiers in Geographical Entity Ontology should match this
regular expression:
^\d{9}$
Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Geographical Entity Ontology should match
this regular expression:
^GEOGEO:\d{9}$

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE
geogeo:000000021
is used to demonstrate the provides available for
geogeo
. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic
logic beyond string formatting.
