sorry just noticed that we have included deprecated terms, the following 4 are not duplicated as its due to deprecation
Also noticed the following 5 pairs have qudt:exactMatch to each other, which might make sense if they have the same label - not 100% sure why they arent merged though?
Thanks for your thoughtful post. We do not forbid multiple URIs from having the same label. Some reasons are discussed below.
First, a few responses to your specific examples:
Your examples, including the qudt:exactMatch examples, bring up some policy issues. For the reason mentioned above of not wanting to affect working applications by deleting entries, our approach has been to not delete any existing units or quantity kinds, but rather mark them as either deprecated or qudt:exactMatch when appropriate.
The reason for having multiple qudt:exactMatch entries is to support familiarity by users, such as TONNE vs. TON_Metric. Another example is when the common interpretation might be ambiguous, such as unit:OZ, which might mean "ounce of mass" or "ounce of volume" or "ounce of force". We selected the most common interpretation to be "ounce of mass", so we include unit:OZ with that meaning, unit:OZ_F for the ounce of force, and unit:OZ_VOL for ounce of volume.
(Thanks to your bringing up these issues, I recognize we should make all this consistent, as in:
The same reasoning applies to some of your other examples where, for example, quantitykind:Permeability is commonly used to mean quantitykind:ElectromagneticPermeability (as opposed to quantitykind:VaporPermeability). We want users to be able to find what they are looking for.
Closed as resolved.
There are multiple terms in QUDT with the same rdfs:label I am not sure if you allow different schemas to have different rdfs:label - but most of them are that way. There are also some errors in labelling. Below is a table of all duplicated labels I got from a sparql query over the following models "http://qudt.org/2.1/schema/qudt" "http://qudt.org/2.1/vocab/unit" "http://qudt.org/2.1/vocab/sou" "http://qudt.org/2.1/vocab/quantitykind"
Here are a few categories
1) Example of duplicated label in same model:
2) Example of duplicated label in different model:
3) Example of mistake in labelling:
I assume the first should be cubic meter per mole second
4) Example of potentially duplicated concepts
