DCAT 2 defines a specific class dcat:DataService
, and 3 specific properties - dcat:endpointDescription
, dcat:endpointURL
, and dcat:servesDataset
.
DCAT-AP 2 as adopted these class and properties (see https://github.com/SEMICeu/DCAT-AP/issues/73), so they should be inherited by GeoDCAT-AP.
This revision has been implemented in the first working draft for GeoDCAT-AP 2.0.0:
https://semiceu.github.io/GeoDCAT-AP/drafts/2.0.0-draft-0.1/
The W3C DXWG is considering extending the scope of DCAT to resources different from datasets (services included). This proposal is documented in https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/172.
The GeoDCAT-AP specification could be revised accordingly, taking nonetheless into account backward compatibility.
