A Semantic Web version of a physical archive on the demography and health of Indigenous Australians collected in a collaboration between Dr Gordon Briscoe and Dr Leonard Smith between 1970 and the present. The physical archive is curated by the Australian National University (ANU) Archives.

Data Roles

Submitted by admin on Wed, 28/02/2024 - 14:18

The roles that Agents - People and Organisations - play in relation to data. This is an extended and Semantic Web version of the International Organisation for Standardization’s ISO19115-1 standard.

This vocabulary is intended to replace other versions of the ISO Role Codes such as https://data.idnau.org/pid/vocab/idn-role-codes and be a central place, at least for Australian Linked Data, for these widely-used codes.

Borehole drilling method

Submitted by chee.ng on Thu, 15/02/2024 - 11:05

A list of drilling methods routinely used by the mineral and energy resource industries. The drilling methods are grouped into three main categories based on the dominant motion of the drillstem (i.e. the string of pipe that transmits power from the surface down to the drillbit) and drillbit (the part of the bottom-hole assembly that cuts, grinds or breaks the bottom-hole formation to make the hole). Specifically, the presence/absence of rotation in either or both is used as the main distinguishing factor, hence the main grouping into rotary, non-rotary and hybrid.
