Hi Michael, I did mean datatype. I do like the MUO / SI solution, but it's strange that they don't describe "Molar" (much more widely used) along with "mole"? Sure enough I can "build" a Molar, as Jim indicated... but I can also "build" a month or an acceleration from days or meters+time, and yet

hi all, i did take a quick look at MUO and it does seem sane. "For instance, MUO has the ability to assert units of measure on n-ary observations, ..." and MUO appears based on SI. cheers, michael > -Original Message- > From: public-semweb-lifesci-requ...@w3.org [mailto:public-semweb-

hi all, how do these ontologies map to SI units? i would pick the one that maps/is based on most closely. ...across a URI for datatype "M" lena, did you mean 'unit' instead of 'datatype'? cheers, michael Michael Miller Software Engineer Institute for Systems Biology *From:*

In general, you really want to be able to have additional levels of qualification. For instance, MUO has the ability to assert units of measure on n-ary observations, as well as to provide prefUnit annotations on properties. An ontology that generates property URIs for every quality and unit of mea

Besides the ontologies already mentioned, the unit ontology / UO (http://obofoundry.org/cgi-bin/detail.cgi?id=unit) also has a class for "mole" and one for "molar mass unit". But you actually wanted a URI for a datatype so this (as well as the other ontologies mentioned before) is probably not w

Hello, UOME has Molar and the URI is http://www.sbpax.org/uome/list.owl#Molar UOME aims to supply any unit in common usage and on top of that provides means to define your own units by deriving them from other units (e.g. more common ones). More info is here: http://www.sbpax.org/uome
