An idea or notion; a unit of thought.

Usage

Instances of skos:Concept can have the following properties:

PROPERTYTYPEDESCRIPTIONRANGE
From class skos:Concept
skos:semanticRelation owl:ObjectProperty Links a concept to a concept related by meaning. skos:Concept
skos:topConceptOf owl:ObjectProperty Relates a concept to the concept scheme that it is a top level concept of. skos:ConceptScheme
skos:broadMatch owl:ObjectProperty skos:broadMatch is used to state a hierarchical mapping link between two conceptual resources in different concept schemes. skos:Concept
skos:broader owl:ObjectProperty Broader concepts are typically rendered as parents in a concept hierarchy (tree). skos:Concept
skos:broaderTransitive owl:ObjectProperty skos:broaderTransitive is a transitive superproperty of skos:broader. skos:Concept
skos:closeMatch owl:ObjectProperty skos:closeMatch is used to link two concepts that are sufficiently similar that they can be used interchangeably in some information retrieval applications. In order to avoid the possibility of "compound errors" when combining mappings across more than two concept schemes, skos:closeMatch is not declared to be a transitive property. skos:Concept
skos:exactMatch owl:ObjectProperty skos:exactMatch is disjoint with each of the properties skos:broadMatch and skos:relatedMatch. skos:Concept
skos:mappingRelation owl:ObjectProperty These concept mapping relations mirror semantic relations, and the data model defined below is similar (with the exception of skos:exactMatch) to the data model defined for semantic relations. A distinct vocabulary is provided for concept mapping relations, to provide a convenient way to differentiate links within a concept scheme from links between concept schemes. However, this pattern of usage is not a formal requirement of the SKOS data model, and relies on informal definitions of best practice. skos:Concept
skos:narrowMatch owl:ObjectProperty skos:narrowMatch is used to state a hierarchical mapping link between two conceptual resources in different concept schemes. skos:Concept
skos:narrower owl:ObjectProperty Narrower concepts are typically rendered as children in a concept hierarchy (tree). skos:Concept
skos:narrowerTransitive owl:ObjectProperty skos:narrowerTransitive is a transitive superproperty of skos:narrower. skos:Concept
skos:related owl:ObjectProperty skos:related is disjoint with skos:broaderTransitive skos:Concept
skos:relatedMatch owl:ObjectProperty skos:relatedMatch is used to state an associative mapping link between two conceptual resources in different concept schemes. skos:Concept
From class owl:Thing
skos:altLabel owl:AnnotationProperty skos:prefLabel, skos:altLabel and skos:hiddenLabel are pairwise disjoint properties. - The range of skos:altLabel is the class of RDF plain literals. owl:Thing
skos:changeNote owl:AnnotationProperty A note about a modification to a concept. owl:Thing
skos:definition owl:AnnotationProperty A statement or formal explanation of the meaning of a concept. owl:Thing
skos:editorialNote owl:AnnotationProperty A note for an editor, translator or maintainer of the vocabulary. owl:Thing
skos:example owl:AnnotationProperty An example of the use of a concept. owl:Thing
skos:hiddenLabel owl:AnnotationProperty skos:prefLabel, skos:altLabel and skos:hiddenLabel are pairwise disjoint properties. - The range of skos:hiddenLabel is the class of RDF plain literals. owl:Thing
skos:historyNote owl:AnnotationProperty A note about the past state/use/meaning of a concept. owl:Thing
skos:inScheme owl:ObjectProperty Relates a resource (for example a concept) to a concept scheme in which it is included. skos:ConceptScheme
skos:notation owl:DatatypeProperty A notation, also known as classification code, is a string of characters such as "T58.5" or "303.4833" used to uniquely identify a concept within the scope of a given concept scheme. owl:Thing
skos:note owl:AnnotationProperty A general note, for any purpose. owl:Thing
skos:prefLabel owl:AnnotationProperty A resource has no more than one value of skos:prefLabel per language tag, and no more than one value of skos:prefLabel without language tag. - The range of skos:prefLabel is the class of RDF plain literals. - skos:prefLabel, skos:altLabel and skos:hiddenLabel are pairwise disjoint properties. owl:Thing
skos:scopeNote owl:AnnotationProperty A note that helps to clarify the meaning and/or the use of a concept. owl:Thing
