Example on standard setting for metadata: power plant information

Context

Sources to characterize a power plant

List of ontologies used to reference power plant types:

* Wikidata
* DBpedia
* Open Energy Ontology
* EuroVoc
* GEMET
* [FAO] 

This example compares different definitions of hydropower plants provided by various ontologies/controlled vocabularies:

* wikidata:Q1591738: 
  literal name: hydroelectric power station
  definition: facility generating electric power using hydroelectricity
* oeo:OEO_00010086:
  literal name: hydro power plant
  definition: A hydro power plant is a power plant having an aggregate of hydro power generating units as its power generating unit parts.
* [GEMET gemet:4098]:
  literal name: hydroelectric power plant
  definition: Power station which operates with the free renewable source of energy provided by falling water.
  

Note, that dbpedia and EuroVoc do not provide a resource specifically describing a hydropower plant. They rather offer definitions on the general concept of hydropower technology.
