Hestia Glossary

Describing data consistently with the same terms makes data exchange possible. Hestia maintains a Glossary of Terms to describe the agri-food system. Only these Terms can be used to describe data.

Terms are created or amended as follows:

  1. Glossaries for each termType are initially created in Excel files. Each column header must either be a field in the schema for Term, or a Property from the Glossary of Terms.

  2. To update or change an Excel file, carefully follow the contribution guidelines. The Hestia team will review your updates and approve them.

  3. Each row of the Excel file is converted into a JSON-LD file following the schema for the Term.

  4. The terms are then indexed, assigned @id fields, and are available for use when uploading new data or performing calculations on existing data.

Contributing

Please read the contribution guidelines before making contributions to the Glossary of Terms.
