This ontology extension was created to address the following need:

  • A clear characterization of most common forecasting data. A distinction is needed between point forecasts versus stochastic forecasts, as well as the various ways to express stochastic forecasts. The forecasted data is expressed in terms of time series.

It reuses the ic-data ontology, which defines timeseries and datapoints that are important elements of forecasting.

It reuses also the ic-topology ontology, which defines location (geographical but also topological, for example, the gird segment).

Providers

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier isExpressedAs is used to demonstrate the providers available for Interconnect Forecasting Ontology. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
