Canonical and Authoritative Places #244

Use Case

Currently Place data is published incidentally from a number of sources of opportunity data. This makes it difficult for a data user to know which Place details (such as openingHoursSpecification) are authoritative.

Why is this not covered by existing properties?

There is no way to indicate ownership of the Place by the publisher within the current model.

Proposal

Where a local authority or leisure operator is the authoritative source of data about a particular Place, they may publish a flag that states it is an authoritative source.

This flag, isAuthoritative, would be a simple boolean property with a domain of schema:Place.

Example

{
  "@type": "Place",
  ...
  "isAuthoritative": true
}
