Interpreting data for solving information needs demands an understanding of the semantics of row data. In this paper, an ontology-driven management of data of the presence of radon gas in soil is presented. The main contribution of this research relies on the formal definition of the semantic of the presence of radon in the dimensions of space and time. As a result, a dynamic data view generator for the observation of radon measurements was deployed without actual software programming but with the proper adjustment and instantiation of the ontology ViewOnto, a web ontology which was created for the formal description of data views. An experimental assessment of the proposal was carried out with data obtained from stone aggregate mines and civil constructions in Tungurahua. The usability of the resulting data management system was successfully validated with the criteria of experts on usability and researchers with experience in radon measurement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
