First of all, thank you for the great job.

I want to cite the vocabulary as a whole as part of a publication and I can't find the right way to do it. Do you have a recommended way? Maybe should I just list the authors from the release I am using? Or should cite the European Union as stated in the license?

Is every release being archived somewhere and getting a DOI? if so, is the DOI consistent with the IRIs?

I think it would be best if you had a citation.cff as part of the repository or some sort of section in the specification pointing to how to cite properly.

I hope you can help me, have a great holiday season.

Dear e_arel, Thank you for your interest in the Vocabulary.

We are currently planning on using SpecRef and will take your advice into account.

Until such a time that the SpecRef is available you should cite the European Commission.

The SpecRef will look as follows: { "href": "https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/semic-support-centre/solution/core-location-vocabulary", "title": "Core Location Vocabulary Version 2.0.2", "publisher": "European Commission", "id": "CLV", "date": "15 May 2023" }
