ES-DOC Controlled Vocabularies.
ES-DOC stands for Earth System - Documentation. It's goal is to provide software tools and services in order to support the distribution of earth system documentation.
esdoc-cv supports the management and delivery of controlled vocabularies related to earth system sciences. A controlled vocabulary is essentially a constrained set of known terms that software agents can leverage in order to build validation engines, user interfaces ...etc.
Earth system controlled vocabularies have historicially been unmanaged and as a consequence dispersed. A CV service will not only simplify dependent stacks but will provide a focus for CV governance and maintenance.
esdoc-cv is leveraged by projects that require earth system CV services, this includes both ES-DOC & ESG-F as well as the various MIP's.
