Abstract

We describe the core module of the Occupational Safety and Health Domain Ontology (OSHDO-Core) v1.0, we have developed. We also discuss the requirements specification and modeling and ontology engineering issues encountered during the design process. The resulting OSHDO-Core contains the core vocabulary of the domain with basic ontological distinctions. The ultimate goal is to establish a common vocabulary and a core formal model of the domain.
