"The OPAL project (https://oscars-project.eu/projects/opal-ontology-portal-astronomy-linked-data) aims to advance the semantic infrastructure for astronomy by creating an ontology portal, as a centralised repository for vocabularies and ontologies. Astronomy has long benefited from the International Virtual Observatory Alliance - IVOA, which promotes data interoperability within the field. However, these vocabularies remain confined to the IVOA ecosystem, limiting their application in related disciplines, such as heliophysics and planetary sciences. The project, in collaboration with the OntoPortal Alliance, will expand the use of IVOA vocabularies across astronomy and neighbouring fields, enhancing data sharing, reuse, and interdisciplinary collaboration."
