Description

We will define the common concepts of the public administration and the relationships be- tween the concepts in a computer- readable way. This definition work (ontology work) is needed, because the same service or information can be searched after by using many dif- ferent terms. Year 1 of the Action Plan we will create a stable operational environment and sustainable operational model to current project-based ontology work.
We will make sure that the names of administrative organizations, programs and job titles are comprehensible and transparent. Names and their abbreviations are used with consider- ation and the abbreviations are not used as primary names.
