**Introduction**
|
|
|
|
|
|
This document introduces the ontologies that have been developed in the context of the InterConnect project to cope with the variety of use cases and services implemented by the Interconnect large scale pilots. According to ontology engineering best practices, the Interconnect ontologies reuse already existing ontologies and, in particular, they extend the SAREF suite of ontologies promoted and maintained by ETSI.

Reuse of existing models is one of the pillars of the semantic web and linked data modelling paradigm. In the subsequent table, we provide a visual overview of the other external ontologies and data models that we have reused, in addition to SAREF, as basis for the InterConnect ontologies</span>.

**InterConnect Ontologies**
|
|
|
|
|
|
Within the framework of InterConnect project, the following nine ontologies have been modeled. Their prefixes and namespaces are presented hereunder.
