This comprehensive study conducts an in-depth analysis of existing COVID-19 ontologies, scrutinizing their objectives, classifications, design methodologies, and domain focal points. The study is conducted through a dual-stage approach, commencing with a systematic review of relevant literature and followed by an ontological assessment utilizing a parametric methodology. Through this meticulous process, twenty-four COVID-19 Ontologies (CovOs) are selected and examined. The findings highlight the scope, intended purpose, granularity of ontology, modularity, formalism, vocabulary reuse, and extent of domain coverage. The analysis reveals varying levels of formality in ontology development, a prevalent preference for utilizing OWL as the representational language, and diverse approaches to constructing class hierarchies within the models. Noteworthy is the recurrent reuse of ontologies like OBO models (CIDO, GO, etc.) alongside CODO. The METHONTOLOGY approach emerges as a favored design methodology, often coupled with application-based or data-centric evaluation methods. Our study provides valuable insights for the scientific community and COVID-19 ontology developers, supplemented by comprehensive ontology metrics. By meticulously evaluating and documenting COVID-19 information-driven ontological models, this research offers a comparative cross-domain perspective, shedding light on knowledge representation variations. The present study significantly enhances understanding of CovOs, serving as a consolidated resource for comparative analysis and future development, while also pinpointing research gaps and domain emphases, thereby guiding the trajectory of future ontological advancements.
