Add a more generic semantic type for percentages #140

It would be good to also have a more generic type where one can express that the values should be filled in with percentages, or a double between 0 and 1.

Hi @mwdhont-auge

We are reviewing DTDL v3 with a revised quantitativeTypes

Can you take a look and see if the Unitless percent matches your needs?

Hi,

I should have been more specific in my request. More specifically I'm looking for cases where efficiency is expressed. Would it be possible to add 'Efficiency' as Semantic Type?

Best, Michiel

+1 for adding some generic semantic type. We have many properties which are some unique percentage that are not covered in quantitativeTypes extension. It would be great to have a generic/universal semantic type that would allow using any of the units in extension for adding metadata.

This relates to the discussion at https://github.com/Azure/opendigitaltwins-dtdl/issues/173.

Currently, I am very much in favor to make use of QUDT - 'Quantity, Unit, Dimension and Type' collection. At https://github.com/Azure/opendigitaltwins-dtdl/issues/173#issuecomment-1831700955, I provided examples for it.
