Good point. It looks like a pattern is emerging: A <<dataType>> of the INSPIRE conceptual schemas, which is primarily used as a facade for / simplified view on an INSPIRE <<featureType>>, could, in the RDF encoding, either be replaced by or merged with that feature type.
In the revision of the draft vocabularies and guidelines:
locn:Address
.
A topic I had wondered about a bit already, and was briefly touched in another discussion:
Is there a need for both Address and AddressRepresentation in the RDF model? Can they not be merged?
By using only a (subclass of)
locn:Address
, that contains both the simplylocn
properties and the specialised INSPIRE attributes, users unfamiliar with INSPIRE would not be confused as to why the structured data of an address is stored in a different class.
