Chapter 8: Building Models Using Ontologies
This chapter will describe the strategy for modeling your digital twin using ontologies. Ontologies are predefined model sets for a certain industry. These ontologies can help us to create and define a model in order to obtain a faster solution. This chapter will offer a detailed explanation of ontologies, as well as what modeling strategies are available. We will examine in detail some of the industry-standard ontologies, and explain how to upload them into an Azure Digital Twins instance.
In this chapter, we will learn how to decide on the strategy that will work for us. We will also learn how to use some of the standard ontologies to help us get a quick start when building digital twin solutions. The following is a list of the section headings in this chapter:
- Understanding ontologies
- Modeling strategy
- Using industry-standard ontologies
- Uploading ontology models
