Abstract
Standardization organizations are working for syntactic and schematic level of interoperability. At the same time, semantic interoperability should be considered as heterogeneous conditions and also very diversified with a large-volume data. The vocabulary registry has been developed and ontological information such as technical vocabularies for earth observation has been collected for data interoperability arrangement. This is a very challenging method for earth observation data interoperability because collaboration or cooperation with scientists of different disciplines is essential for common understanding. SKOS-editor is developed to register and update technical vocabularies as a part of the vocabulary registry, which promises to be a useful tool for users to handle SKOS format. In order to invite contributions from the user community, it is necessary to provide sophisticated and easy-to-use tools. Registered vocabularies supply the reference information required for earth observation data retrieval. We proposed data/metadata search with ontology such as technical vocabularies and visualization of relations among dataset to very large scale and various earth observation data.
