Value
Tags used in folksonomies; formal definitions from other systems.

Comments

  • Often a type can be modeled either as an owl:Class or as a gist:Category. Use the latter if you don't care much about the formal structure of the different types, or if there is a whole hierarchy of types that are going to be managed by a group separate from the ontology developers. The formal structure may be defined elsewhere and linked to, if necessary.

    description: A statement about someone or something's attributes or characteristics.
    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.'''
