General Objective: Create a semantic web application to archive and link data from different formats and sources in a library and digital repository, based on the determination of physical and chemical characteristics of clays from various sites in the southern region of Ecuador.
Specific objectives:
- Take samples from various clay deposits in the southern region of the country.
- Analyze and describe the characteristics of clays.
- Determine the physical, mineralogical, chemical and crystallographic properties of the studied clays.
- Build a map of the clay properties of each site.
- Develop a statistical correlation of the structure of clays and their properties (QSPR, for its acronym in English), through a multivariate model.
- Build a semantic web application that allows consulting, investigating and correlating the data stored in the digital repository and asking basic questions about its potential functionality and application.
