Abstract
The British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) operates the NERC Vocabulary Server (NVS) web service, which provides access to controlled vocabularies. Some of these vocabularies are totally managed by BODC but others have external content governance authorities (e.g. SeaVox).
In addition, there are a number of vocabularies hosted on the NVS where the labels for concepts in one vocabulary are created from a concatenation of concept labels from other vocabularies following an underlying semantic model.
