What is a Translator in Knowledge Management

Current divisions in disciplines and data silos mean that there is a huge untapped value not just in terms of ‘lost’ data but also stakeholder knowledge, which currently is not well captured. The role of the Knowledge Management Translator is to work with materials and manufacturing domain experts as well as data scientists and knowledge engineers to shape data in order to express knowledge. The job of the Knowledge Management Translator is to bring together and orchestrate people, tools, and processes to achieve this.

Supported by the European H2020 OntoCommons project, a range of authors, representing the knowledge management translation ecosystem, got together and discussed the role in workshops and produced a paper outlining the role, including a structured approach to Knowledge Management Translation, as a process broken down into six steps.
