New Release: Vocabulary Guidelines for NFDI4Cat 2.0

The Vocabulary Guidelines for NFDI4Cat are now available in the revised Version 2.0.
They offer comprehensive guidance for the development, maintenance, and expansion of controlled vocabularies in the field of catalysis research – a key step toward machine-readable, FAIR data and the creation of domain-specific ontologies.

The guidelines are aimed at anyone who wishes to contribute to the Voc4Cat vocabulary and define standards for terminology, spelling, translations, and semantic relations. The new version was released in February 2025 and is the result of extensive discussions within Task Area 1: Ontology Development and Metadata Standards.

? The current guidelines can be downloaded via our Repo4Cat.
? More information is available on the Voc4Cat GitHub page.
