Question
Asked 17 June 2019

Where can I search existing ontology for (e.g for user modelling and disabilities)?

HI everyone,
I am trying to find Ontologies for user modelling and for disabilities, so far I have had little success finding ontology search engines. The only one I managed to locate is https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols/index which doesn't have the kinds of Ontologies I am looking for. Any pointers will be appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm undergraduated and jr. researcher in the area of Library and Information Science (LIS) at the UNIRIO, Brasil.
I would suggest consulting the BioPortal and Aber-OWL repositories.
1) Bioportal (Taxonomy + Classes) <http://bioportal.bioontology.org>.
Some examples of searches without a more specific focus:
2) Aber-OWL <http://aber-owl.net/#/>.
Hope it helps you.
Rodrigo.
