Dear All,
Up until now, addressing of CF Standard Names through the NERC Vocabulary
Server has been through opaque identifiers such as 'P07' and 'CFV8N1'. In
response to requests for addressing through semantically meaningful URLs we
have introduced a system of alternative URLs using the following conventions:
To obtain a SKOS document containing a description and mappings for a given
Standard Name use the syntax:
- http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/standard_name/{version}/{standard_name}
{version} can be short-circuited to "current", e.g.
- http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/standard_name/current/aerosol_angstrom_exponent/
The full Standard Names list can be accessed by
http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/standard_name/
Note that the URNs are unchanged and that the URLs based on opaque identifiers
are still valid and will continue to be supported by the vocabulary server.
Regards, Roy.
