It may be worth reminding ourselves (?) that in RDF you can use “all of the above”. That is, if you want to make your RDF as consumable as possible, you may well represent the same stuff using more than one ontology. This is true of lots of things, such as peoples’ names or different bibliograph

Hi Heiko, Unless you want to use another ontology (e.g. BIO [1][2] or schema.org[3]), I'd probably go ahead and break that contract, although it is not technically safe (AFAIK, it's a violation of OWL semantics). It depends on the expected consumption of your data. I would say that the vcard onto

Hi Heiko, The Timex3 standard for temporal expressions [1], as widely used for linguistic analysis, suggests 'XX' if the date or month is unknown. I'm not aware if people are using that to encode temporal expressions in Linked datasets, but it would definitely be a better solution than using

Hi Jerven, this looks like a pragmatic solution. But I wonder if it may lead to any conflicts, e.g., the vcard ontology defines the bday property with xsd:dateTime as its range explicitly. Is it "safe" to simply use an xsd:gYear value as its object? Best, Heiko Am 10.02.2014 15:43, schrie

Encoding an incomplete date as xsd:dateTime

2014-02-10 Thread Heiko Paulheim
Hi all, xsd:dateTime and xsd:date are used frequently for encoding dates in RDF, e.g., for birthdays in the vcard ontology [1]. Is there any best practice to encode incomplete date information, e.g., if only the birth *year* of a person is known? As far as I can see, the XSD spec enforces th
