 So the workshop followed on from the symposium in November. It was also held at the Research School of Social Sciences at ANU Canberra. And the aim of the workshop was to develop a program for how we can move forward from the current state of Australian vocabularies towards a future state that meets next generation vocab requirements. That is particularly vocabularies that are fair and well-governed. Progress. Oh, here we go. So the focus questions to help us progress this agenda and aim were focused around thinking about what is our current vocabulary landscape and what does it need to look like in the future? What would constitute the fair, the optimum future state, and how we could work towards that future state? What we might need to do to be able to harmonise and converge our thinking and how we might achieve sustainability for longevity of critical services within the vocab landscape so that they will be there within five, ten plus years time. So the participants was an invited workshop due to a number of practical constraints and meaningful, you know, important engagement with the group size that was reasonable and could be handled. So the invited participants were from across the thematic areas based broadly on the ARDC thematic research data commons areas of people, planet, has an indigenous and we also had some representatives from generic cross-domain areas such as services, tooling, tooling provision and geospatial areas. There were, now I did count, I didn't go back and check exactly guys, but 21 participants with organisational and research affiliations with a number of organisations, infrastructures and initiatives there. The workshop structure, roughly it was, well, it was very fluid. So, you know, met the needs of the discussion as the day, the days flowed along and it was facilitated by Kiran, which he did a great job and he's here today. So he might be able to hear from Kiran. Once this is finished up here, so we had a context setting and mapping of the current landscape in day one and then Thursday we did some planning and had some planned discussions to be able to talk about what do we want to, you know, form a roadmap and what does that look like, what could the next steps be and how we spend our Friday and on the Friday we planned, we did start drafting a roadmap and planning a pathway forward, which we'll discuss with you today. And it was very, as I said, very hands-on and fluid workshop. So day one was context setting and mapping the landscape. The idea was to collectively map, have discussions around the Australian vocabulary ecosystem as we all had experienced and understood it from our domains and discussed relevant international engagements that were important to and across our domains and the intent of this mapping was to help identify what's available now, services and relationships and how they meet, do not or could meet Australia's next generation vocab requirements. So this included requirements within the domain as well as cross-domain and generic vocabularies, infrastructure and we had a good discussion about some relevant documentation and communities that we engaged with as well. So day one, we had introductions and we had a nice presentation scene setting from Adrian Burton who discussed ARDC and their role, a little bit of the importance of vocabularies and why we were all meeting and what we hoped to get out of the workshop and the rough structure of the flow of the days. So we then had a presentation by Andrew Hancock from Stats New Zealand, he's a principal analyst and chair of the UN Committee of Experts on International Statistical Classifications and he presented some inspiring work to us on the modernisation of statistical classifications, combining technology and partnership working together within New Zealand also across, you know, being adopted and adapted across countries, jurisdictions as well. So that was a nice scene setting, gave us plenty to talk about, talk and think and reflect on and he did present the talk is not available at the moment but it was quite similar from memory to the AVSIG meeting that content wise that Andrew presented so if you missed that meeting you might let to go back and have a look at that one. So we then broke into thematic areas of people, planet has an indigenous as well as generic, sorry generic people, broadly applicable across theme including chair spatial and we had a number of things to sit and review, we had a look at the responses of research birds feather where we asked folks to focus mostly on the question around what's the current vocabulary landscape, how did they find it and the reflections from the vocabulary symposium that Rowan shared, the results of that and the breakdown of those word clouds, the main themes we could see coming out. We discussed where we understood within our domains, Australians were mostly utilizing international vocabularies, vocabulary resources and where it is appropriate to have local, national and international vocabularies and use those and whether there was any consensus within the group there. So this session focused on, this discussion was, stress was mostly on vocabularies, not the services which follows in the next. Now throughout we did have a list of vocabularies which was started up in the symposium that folks, the 200 or so participants and the ones in this workshop could contribute the vocabularies that they believed or saw or used that were critical within their domains and just see whether there was multiple versions of or whether there was any important that we saw missing but that wasn't particularly a focus of an activity. The worksheet was just run up and available throughout and that worksheet is still available that Excel. So folks can still add to it and we can share those links. Sorry, I can't pop the links into the chat because I can't see my speaker notes. So activity four, we focused on infrastructures and again we broke out into thematic groups. We discussed vocabularie repositories. That's meant to be number one actually. So vocabularie repositories, how many are there, are there assets fair, how many portals there are, again a day fair, vocabularie advocates, I mean vocabularie aggregators in Australia, RVA being one, are there any others systems that managed and edited vocabularies? I'll touch on that in the next slide. And did anybody have, were there any connections between the service aggregators, portals, et cetera with any major international efforts and were there any international equivalents that we preferred or did use for certain purposes instead of Australian specifically hosted ones? And were there any, did anyone see any glaring gaps that they may have seen compared with the offerings or scope of international infrastructures? So back with the question how many systems are there to edit and manage vocabularies and what are their sustainability and their stability? I'll just touch on that we didn't review that in detail. Some of you attended the Dagstool Down Under workshop last year and remember that a workshop output spread tooling was collated. I did see Nick and Edmund in the attending here today that they did work on that and others as well. A few here may have so we didn't go into the tooling too much. Some notes from Rowan were that he touched base with ARDC that support the maintenance, support such an output if it was demonstrated as valuable to the community. But we hadn't particularly received any strong feedback one way or the other around that list and particularly if it is of interest to the Australian and or international community where would it be hosted? How would it be maintained? And Leslie had an approach VSIG. The vocabularies, what is that? Vocabularies serve as something, something they're scoping what it might look like in the next few years and activities and I'm not really sure where they got to. So if anyone has any interest in maintaining or has views on that tooling list been touched with us and through the VSIG group would like to hear about it. So generally we reported back on that whole wide range of topics had touch back ends and the views, ideas, general themes, etc. Broadly were intended to shape important content, objectives, outcomes, etc. That a roadmap would need to touch on if we went that way. Day two, the groups were across domains so we formed across domain groups and again we had discussions and activities which were aimed to inform a roadmap for day three. We started off by reviewing and scoping documents that could influence the vision and the objectives of the roadmap. They could either support or constrain. So we looked at briefly groups and communities of practice and also working in vocabularies here and internationally we needed to consider and we started a summary, a list of summary of key guiding documents groups and communities of practice including the quotes and excerpts of relating specifically to the support or the need for vocabularies and I believe it was Leslie did an excellent job there so we'll be happy to share that in some output form in the next month or two or going forward. We'll discuss that in some of them in the next slide. We asked participants if they knew of any other documents that could inspire the roadmap and there was a number both nationally and internationally and at a glance they did all mostly appear to support rather than constrain the case for vocabularies into the future though it is positive some also inform or would inform vocabulary best practice things like privacy acts, code of ethics etc. So there is some of the influential documents and of course this slide actually doesn't include the ones that the participants added also. So folks if you know of any you could flick them our way and we'll discuss how the community can contribute to these efforts towards the end of the presentation. So we also touched on current planning documents some of you are at the RVA review that was a while ago back wasn't it? I can't remember what year 2019 or something and the roadmap was the product and there was an output of that so we pulled out there were some key quotes for that we didn't dive into that too much but it's important to consider in the building of a roadmap and there's a link to that there and community practice of SIG and Oldwig their role and there was a couple of others that we could and possibly should engage with we then worked through a cross-domain scenario that a virus had come into northern Australia that it was causing people to die that sounds a little too familiar doesn't it? So spreading fast amongst the population it could be transmitted by air or animal so we got into cross-domain groups panels of experts to save the world from imminent doom so we discussed the role of this obviously advice to determine the environmental social impact determinants of disease so which vocabularies would be required to assist in the scenario and which are the barriers to linking across infrastructures and with a social technical governance etc so the aim of this was to stimulate discussion to feed into the roadmap of cross-domain vocabulary use so how can we use vocabularies to advance those great big ticket items and big wicked problems I guess you'd say we did some stakeholder mapping customers customers suppliers and suppliers suppliers and as I said to somebody only a group of vocabulary managers and etc would come up with such a comprehensive list here and then we started we did some oh now this might have been getting into day 3 no maybe day 2 still so we mapped out everyone taking on board the activities of the last couple of days we pulled out main themes that we thought should be included in a roadmap key features and they were popped up on the wall and moved into key groupings or themes starting at the top front of the document intro content and basically areas of focus to improve work towards our vision outcome areas that we believe we should focus on came into key areas of standards norms culture relationships infrastructure technology skills and policy so the next the last day we started a pathway forward so in basic agreement well okay let's begin this roadmap there's value in it we began to flesh out those ideas from the day before we split into across the main groups and started drafting from some points and reported back on how the basic content how we found that and the structure then we discussed a pathway a pathway forward so Friday was a half day we wanted to establish an agenda for how will we further develop our ecosystem in Australia to meet our future reuse requirements particularly across domain we discussed obviously there was an interest in developing a roadmap for vocabularies and semantic resources in Australia amongst the folks in the room we thought well the initial working group to continue on this rough draft could be say this month the workshop attendees so to continue on with that work we started up until December 2023 oh 2022 look at that we've got a whole year to draft 23 not ambitious at all one month we're going to continue on with our draft and then we'll take it out to the community and the broader all you folks here today are probably interested in contributing so we'd like to talk about that the time frame we thought one to one year outcomes and five year were tangible and impactful and we discussed the need for a broader advocacy group to drive and take home for this roadmap to take it forward work on it, maintain it etc it was actually flag between the participants as an appropriate group old wigs a little more specific around government focused agencies so I would like your thoughts on that there yeah there was thought that it would be great to release this roadmap at the time that there was a document coming out from the department Department of Education that Adrian did touch on that that will be coming out next year so I can't remember the exact name of those recommendations or that scoping activity but I think the plan was to finish a roadmap by kind of mid next year at the latest and folks could probably comment on that that were in the workshop and I think that's about it .
