Value
A laptop, a physical book, a car, a building, a landmark (such as a tree stump with an etched marking to denote a campsite).

Comments

  • This concept generally corresponds to count nouns in English. By contrast, physical substances, such as an amount of water, flour, or sand, are mass nouns. Physical identifiable items are made up of physical substances; e.g., a cake is made up of butter, flour, and sugar; a statue is made of bronze. If you divide a physical substance such as an amount of water into parts, you have two amounts of water otherwise indistinguishable from one another; if you divide a physical identifiable item such as a computer into parts, each part is different from the whole.

    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.'''
