本文描述了测量单位和相关概念的本体（OM），一个量和测量单位领域的OWL本体。OM支持使定量研究数据更加明确，以便数据可以整合，验证和复制。讨论了建模域的各种选项。例如，物理量可以建模为类、实例或属性。设计选择基于我们自己项目的用例和该领域的一般经验。这些用例已经被实现为工具和Web服务。OM是比较QUDT，另一个积极的努力，在这个领域的OWL模型。我们注意到将这些努力结合起来的可能性。我们还讨论了OWL在我们的方法中扮演的角色。
This paper describes the Ontology of units of Measure and related concepts (OM), an OWL ontology of the domain of quantities and units of measure. OM supports making quantitative research data more explicit, so that the data can be integrated, verified and reproduced. The various options for modeling the domain are discussed. For example, physical quantities can be modeled either as classes, instances or properties. The design choices made are based on use cases from our own projects and general experience in the field. The use cases have been implemented as tools and web services. OM is compared with QUDT, another active effort for an OWL model in this domain. We note possibilities for integration of these efforts. We also discuss the role OWL plays in our approach.
