Alignments with EuroVoc
EuroVoc is a multilingual, multidisciplinary thesaurus covering the activities of the EU, and it is one of the controlled vocabularies recommended in DCAT-AP.
The Publications Office of the EU has defined and published alignments between EuroVoc and other vocabularies, including those typically used in geospatial metadata – in particular, AGROVOC, GEMET, the INSPIRE themes and the INSPIRE feature concept dictionary.
These alignments are available from the Metadata Registry of the EU Publications Office:

Alignments with the MDR Data Themes
DCAT-AP requires the use of the MDR Data Themes to annotate metadata records:

Results of work concerning the alignment of INSPIRE / ISO 19115 controlled vocabularies with the MDR Data Themes are available at:
