Environmental Impact

This file contains the CGI Earth Resource Environmental Impact vocabulary, as defined by the IUGS Commission for Geoscience Information (CGI) Geoscience Terminology Working Group. The vocabulary defines concepts for categorizing impacts associated with Earth Resource extraction activities. By extension, this vocabulary includes all concepts in this conceptScheme, as well as concepts in any previous versions of the scheme.

  • 2014-02-23 Conversion to SKOS by SM Richard
  • 2021-12-17 Rachel Heaven (BGS) Edits to remove trailing white space from https://linked.data.gov.au/org/cgi-gtwg sdo:name value
  • 2015-01-08 OLR Edits to fix typos and remove '201401' from rdf file name.
  • 2021-12-17 R.Heaven BGS Added prefLabel and altLabel in non English languages, obtained from previously determined alignments between @en labels in CGI and Multi-lingual Thesaurus of Geosciences (MulTG) and Asian Multi-lingual Thesaurus of Geosciences (AMTG). Note that specific language packs are required to render the fonts. Known issues: @lo and @fi labels were incorrectly encoded in the digitised source datasets; they have been included regardless of this in case the encoding can be corrected.
  • 2020-06-23 NJC Added properties to ensure vocab matched Geoscience Australia's vocab profile (http://linked.data.gov.au/def/ga-skos-profile). Just annotation properties, no new content. Agents (creator/publisher) now not text but RDF resource. Dates (create/modified) derived from editorial notes & existing date properties.
  • 2016-11-28 OLR regenerate SKOS-RDF file as part of migration to new vocabulary server. No change to previous concepts definitions.

  • Ce registre recense les différents impacts environnementaux découlant des activités minières. Ce registre reprend le travail de l'IUGS et est donc constitué du vocabulaire CGI Earth Resource Environmental Impact (<ahref='http://resource.geosciml.org/classifierscheme/cgi/2016.01/environmental-impact'>http://resource.geosciml.org/classifierscheme/cgi/2016.01/environmental-impact</a>), tel que défini par le groupe de travail sur la terminologie géoscientifique de la Commission IUGS pour l'information géoscientifique (CGI). Le vocabulaire définit les concepts permettant de catégoriser les impacts associés aux activités d'extraction des ressources terrestres.
