http://www.w3.org/ns/org#FormalOrganization
An Organization which is recognized in the world at large, in particular in legal jurisdictions, with associated rights and responsibilities. Examples include a Corporation, Charity, Government or Church. Note that this is a super class of `gr:BusinessEntity` and it is recommended to use the GoodRelations vocabulary to denote Business classifications such as DUNS or NAICS.
Instances of org:FormalOrganization can have the following properties:
| PROPERTY | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | RANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| From class org:FormalOrganization | |||
| org:hasRegisteredSite | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates the legally registered site for the organization, in many legal jurisdictions there is a requirement that FormalOrganizations such as Companies or Charities have such a primary designed site. | org:Site |
| org:hasUnit | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a unit which is part of this Organization, e.g. a Department within a larger FormalOrganization. Inverse of `org:unitOf`. | org:OrganizationalUnit |
| From class org:Organization | |||
| org:changedBy | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a change event which resulted in a change to this organization. Depending on the event the organization may or may not have continued to exist after the event. Inverse of `org:originalOrganization`. | org:ChangeEvent |
| org:classification | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a classification for this Organization within some classification scheme. Extension vocabularies may wish to specialize this property to have a range corresponding to a specific `skos:ConceptScheme`. This property is under discussion and may be revised or removed - in many cases organizations are best categorized by defining a sub-class hierarchy in an extension vocabulary. | skos:Concept |
| org:hasMember | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a person who is a member of the subject Organization. Inverse of `org:memberOf`, see that property for further clarification. Provided for compatibility with `foaf:member`. | foaf:Agent |
| org:hasPost | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a Post which exists within the Organization. | org:Post |
| org:hasPrimarySite | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a primary site for the Organization, this is the default means by which an Organization can be contacted and is not necessarily the formal headquarters. | org:Site |
| org:hasSite | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a site at which the Organization has some presence even if only indirect (e.g. virtual office or a professional service which is acting as the registered address for a company). Inverse of `org:siteOf`. | org:Site |
| org:hasSubOrganization | owl:ObjectProperty | Represents hierarchical containment of Organizations or Organizational Units; indicates an organization which is a sub-part or child of this organization. Inverse of `org:subOrganizationOf`. | org:Organization |
| org:identifier | owl:DatatypeProperty | Gives an identifier, such as a company registration number, that can be used to used to uniquely identify the organization. Many different national and international identier schemes are available. The org ontology is neutral to which schemes are used. The particular identifier scheme should be indicated by the datatype of the identifier value. Using datatypes to distinguish the notation scheme used is consistent with recommended best practice for `skos:notation` of which this property is a specialization. | owl:Thing |
| org:linkedTo | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates an arbitrary relationship between two organizations. Specializations of this can be used to, for example, denote funding or supply chain relationships. | org:Organization |
| org:purpose | rdf:Property | Indicates the purpose of this Organization. There can be many purposes at different levels of abstraction but the nature of an organization is to have a reason for existence and this property is a means to document that reason. An Organization may have multiple purposes. It is recommended that the purpose be denoted by a controlled term or code list, ideally a `skos:Concept`. However, the range is left open to allow for other types of descriptive schemes. It is expected that specializations or application profiles of this vocabulary will constrain the range of the purpose. Alternative names: _remit_ _responsibility_ (esp. if applied to OrganizationalUnits such as Government Departments). | owl:Thing |
| org:resultedFrom | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates an event which resulted in this organization. Inverse of `org:resultingOrganization`. | org:ChangeEvent |
| org:subOrganizationOf | owl:ObjectProperty | Represents hierarchical containment of Organizations or OrganizationalUnits; indicates an Organization which contains this Organization. Inverse of `org:hasSubOrganization`. | org:Organization |
| org:transitiveSubOrganizationOf | owl:ObjectProperty | The transitive closure of subOrganizationOf, giving a representation of all organizations that contain this one. Note that technically this is a super property of the transitive closure so it could contain additional assertions but such usage is discouraged. | org:Organization |
| From class foaf:Agent | |||
| org:hasMembership | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a membership relationship that the Agent plays. Inverse of `org:member`. | org:Membership |
| org:headOf | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates that a person is the leader or formal head of the Organization. This will normally mean that they are the root of the `org:reportsTo` (acyclic) graph, though an organization may have more than one head. | org:Organization |
| org:holds | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates a Post held by some Agent. | org:Post |
| org:memberOf | owl:ObjectProperty | Indicates that a person is a member of the Organization with no indication of the nature of that membership or the role played. Note that the choice of property name is not meant to limit the property to only formal membership arrangements, it is also indended to cover related concepts such as affilliation or other involvement in the organization. Extensions can specialize this relationship to indicate particular roles within the organization or more nuanced relationships to the organization. Has an optional inverse, `org:hasmember`. | org:Organization |
