Circular Economy Ontology Network (CEON)

Welcome to the CEON development documentation site — the companion resource to the CEON ontology catalogue.

This site documents the development process, requirements, competency questions, and SPARQL queries for the Circular Economy Ontology Network. For the ontology modules themselves (serializations, alignments, auto-generated docs), see the main catalogue.


What is CEON?

The Circular Economy Ontology Network (CEON) provides a shared vocabulary for representing information about circular economies in the form of a network of ontology modules. It is developed by the Linköping University Semantic Web Group as part of the Onto-DESIDE project, funded by the European Union under Horizon Europe Grant Agreement No. 101058682.
