Following DCAT 3, DCAT-AP 3 introduces a set of versioning properties, replacing the corresponding ones in earlier versions of DCAT-AP (see the DCAT-AP 3 specification, §A.1).
To be aligned with DCAT-AP 3 and DCAT 3, GeoDCAT-AP 3 should deprecate the use of dct:hasVersion, dct:isVersionOf, and owl:versionInfo, and replace them with dcat:hasVersion, dcat:isVersionOf, and dcat:version, respectively.
