    The ontology Metadata4Ing is developed within the NFDI Consortium NFDI4Ing with the aim of providing a thorough framework for the semantic description of research data, with a particular focus on engineering sciences and neighbouring disciplines. This ontology allows a thorough description of the whole data generation process (experiment, observation, simulation), embracing the object of investigation, all sample and data manipulation procedures, a summary of the data files and the information contained, and all personal and institutional roles. The subordinate classes and relations can be built according to the two principles of inheritance and modularity. Inheritance means that a subclass inherits all properties of its superordinate class, possibly adding some new ones. Modularity means that all expansions are independent of each other; this makes possible for instance to generate expanded ontologies for any possible combinations of method × object of research.

    Within the agreement on the establishment and promotion of a National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI), the Federal German Government and the Länder are striving for a discipline-specific service structure for research data, which aims for their long-term storage, safeguarding and accessibility. In the field of the applied urban research, data from different sectors such as administration, buildings, environment, mobility, social affairs must be considered and linked. In this workshop the NFDI4City-initiative met and discussed its overall vision, conceptual solutions as well as data domains inside and across these sectors. The goal of NFDI4City is to create new databased overarching understandings of urban development through standardization and data analysis in the ""Urban System"".
