Abstract
This paper describes ongoing work in the KNOWMAK project, which aims to develop a webbased
tool providing interactive visualisations and state-of-the-art indicators on knowledge cocreation
in the European research area. One of the main novel developments in this work is the
use of ontologies to act as a bridge between the data sources (research projects, patents and
publications) and user queries, in order to address the problems of mapping between
heterogenous data sources with different vocabularies while still maintaining a level of
standardization necessary for summarising the information required to provide informative
views about the highly dynamic S&T landscape.
