N.B.: Terms consist of a textual label.
N.B.: Concepts contain a persistent, dereferenceable URI (ideally a 'cool URL') of a concept (from another ontology, vocabulary, taxonomy, or Wikipedia).
N.B.: Relations between different concepts within EDAM are covered by EDAM relations (_hastopic, _is_formatof, _is_identifierof, _hasinput, _hasoutput).
Probably not to be used in EDAM:
N.B.: The proposed usage is closely matching the usage within the EUCLID project.
Thanks to Sophie Aubin and Claire Nédellec for sharing the gist clarifying the concept relations from the EUCLID perspective.:
Hi,
Sophie Aubin would could not attend the meeting this morning gave me this link to the Euclid project about linked data: http://euclid-project.eu/modules/chapter3.html
_The property _owl:sameAs is used to express that two URI references actually refer to the same thing.
The property rdfs:seeAlsoindicates that more relevant information can be found by following the link.
skos:closeMatch expresses that two concepts are sufficiently similar that they could possibly be used interchangeably skos:exactMatch expresses that two concepts can be used interchangeably. This property is transitive. skos:relatedMatch expresses that there is an associative mapping between the two concepts

INFERENCES BASED ON EQUIVALENCE AMONG TERMS owl:sameAs : It provides a means by which datasets with different naming conventions can be connected. owl:equivalentClass: Stating that two classes, or two properties, have the same meaning,

This is a long-term, conceptual enhancement issue that is common between EDAM-bioimaging and the mainline EDAM.
