Example 35 Using Multiple `dcat:bbox` #68

Open init-dcat-ap-de opened 11 months ago

The dct:Location in Example 35 has multiple dcat:bbox attributes (to show off the possible encodings). But dcat:bbox has the cardinality 0..1 in dct:Location:

@init-dcat-ap-de in B.6.10.1 Bounding box it says:

Geometries MAY be provided in multiple encodings, but at least one of the following MUST be made available: GML and WKT.

In a related issue, this is interpreted as "provide maximum of one bounding box per representation" - which results in what we see in Example 35. Later, it is being compared to e.g. dataset title in multiple languages. However, in this case, the cardinality should be lifted to 0..* and a usage note added, similar to: image

There are two possible resolutions:

  1. Either multiple representations are allowed for dcat:bbox and dcat:centroid in https://github.com/SEMICeu/DCAT-AP/issues/175, then the cardinality will be lifted and the example can stay as it is
  2. Only one representation will be allowed for dcat:bbox and dcat:centroid in https://github.com/SEMICeu/DCAT-AP/issues/175, then the cardinality will stay and the example needs to be adjusted.
