Crystallography Domain Ontology

A crystallography domain ontology based on EMMO and the CIF core dictionary. It is implemented as a formal language.

Status

Proposal
accepted, under development
official

This domain ontology is work-in-progress (WIP), it is in the process of being accepted as a task group by the EMMC.

Imported Ontologies

This ontology builds on top of EMMO. See the following table for version compatibilies:

Imported Ontologies	Version
EMMO	1.0.0-beta
CIF-ontology	0.1.0

Obtaining the Crystallography Domain Ontology

The Crystallography Domain Ontology can be access or opened in Protege using the following url

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emmo-repo/domain-crystallography/master/crystallography.ttl

It can also be cloned from its GitHub repository. With ssh access to GitHub set up, the Crystallography Domain Ontology can be cloned with

git clone git@github.com:emmo-repo/domain-crystallography.git

In EMMO-python correct import is obatined with

from emmo import get_ontology

# Loading crystallography from local repository
cryst = get_ontology('/path/to/crystallography.ttl').load()

# Loading crystallography from web
cryst = get_ontology('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emmo-repo/domain-crystallography/master/crystallography.ttl').load()
