Class: OntologyClass

a concept or class in an ontology, vocabulary or thesaurus. Note that nodes in a base compatible KG can be considered both instances of base classes, and OWL classes in their own right. In general you should not need to use this class directly. Instead, use the appropriate base class.

Comments

  • This is modeled as a mixin. 'OntologyClass' should not be the primary type of a node in the KG. Instead you should use an informative base category, such as DeploymentEntity
  • Note that formally this is a metaclass. Instances of this class are instances in the graph, but can be the object of 'type' edges.
