Model

This model is composed of Web Ontology Language (OWL) [OWL] Classes and Properties. Some of them are defined in this model and others are from other, well-known, ontologies and reused here. Each element indicates where it is defined using the Is Defined By predicate.

Classes

Compound Name

:CompoundName

Preferred Label

Compound Name

Definition

A Compound Name is a literal value, or objects that can be interpreted as literal values, that describe or name a Feature

Is Defined By

This model

Expected Properties

is name for, has part

Example

 
# An example Compound Name that is an Address,
# constructed in the manner of Australian street addresses
# and typically rendered for letter sending as:
#
# 72 Yundah Street
# Shorncliffe, QLD, 4017
# Australia

Resource

Property Value

IRI

rdfs:Resource

Preferred Label

Resource

Definition

The class resource, everything

Is Defined By

RDF 1.2 Schema

Scope Note

This class is used to represent both the things to which CompoundNames can be assigned and also the range value of the property rdf:value. It is not expected to be used directly but instead specialised types of Resource are expected

Example

See the non-literal values for rdf:value in the CompoundName example

Literal

Property Value

IRI

rdfs:Literal

Preferred Label

Literal

Definition

The class of literal values, eg. textual strings and integer

Is Defined By

RDF 1.2 Schema

Scope Note

This class is used to represent the range value of the property :asLiteral. It is not expected to be used directly but instead specialised types of Literal are expected

Example

See the literals values of '72' and 'Yundah' in the CompoundName example

Concept

Property Value

IRI

skos:Concept

Preferred Label

Concept

Definition

An idea or notion; a unit of thought

Is Defined By

SKOS Reference

Expected Properties

Standard SKOS properties for Concepts

Scope Note

This class is the type of the expected values for the property sdo:additionalType when used within this model. Concepts are typically controlled terms within ConceptSchemes. Literal representations of Concepts should easily be obtainable

Example

 
# See the example for CompoundName and add the following
#
PREFIX ex: <http://example.com/>
PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#>

ex:Island
    a skos:Concept ;
    skos:inScheme ex:someConceptScheme ;
    skos:prefLabel "Island" ;
    skos:altLabel "Is." ;
.
