Examples

Value
The units of measure bit, byte, kilobit, kilobyte, etc. are all in the same unit group because they can all be used to measure an amount of data.

Comments

  • Typically there is one unit group per aspect. An example of an aspect with two unit groups is vehicle efficiency, which can be measured by miles per gallon (distance per volume) or by liters per 100 kilometers (volume per distance). These two units of measure need to be in different unit groups because they have different values of exponents. When adding a unit of measure to a unit group, make sure it has the same exponents as the other members of the unit group.

    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.'''
