Usage

Instances of org:OrganizationalUnit can have the following properties:

PROPERTYTYPEDESCRIPTIONRANGE
From class org:OrganizationalUnit
org:unitOf owl:ObjectProperty Indicates an Organization of which this Unit is a part, e.g. a Department within a larger FormalOrganization. This is the inverse of `org:hasUnit`. org:FormalOrganization
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
