Length, weight, cost, cycle time, defect rate, wheelbase, billing rate.

Comments

  • Depending on implementation, every aspect should be related to a unit group either directly or through a broader aspect. For example, angle of incidence could be related to the broader concept of angle, which in turn is related to a unit group, or it could be related directly to the unit group without the hierarchical relationship.
  • Rule of thumb: use the least specific aspect that serves the intended purpose, increasing specificity only when required (e.g., to distinguish between two magnitudes attached to the same object).

    comments:
    - This property is used to describe instance data which is not part of the ontology.
      A definition and a description have different semantics. Use skos:definition
      for a statement of the meaning of a thing and gist:description to describe a
      thing's attributes, characteristics, or features.
    examples:
    - value: A person does not have a definition, but might be described as being
        six feet tall with brown hair and blue eyes; an ontology class or taxonomy
        term has a definition.
    - value: '''The Empire State Building is a 102-story Art Deco skyscraper in midtown
        Manhattan in New York City. It was designed by Shreve, Lamb & Harmon and built
        from 1930 to 1931.'''
