Use QUDT ontology for units, quantities and etc. #10

Closed KMax closed 9 years ago

KMax commented 9 years ago

Use the QUDT ontology (http://www.qudt.org/) to represent the units of measurement.

QUDT ontology contains about 150 quantities and units. Should we make user to be available to select all of them? If so, should we construct the list of available units dynamicly via SPARQL query to some endpoint?

KMax commented 9 years ago

I think, we will need to upload the ontology to our triplestore, because usually ontologies are just files, so it's not possible to query them.

soylent-grin commented 9 years ago

So, the answer is - yes, query endpoint for the list of available units and quantities and construct dropdown dynamically - correct?

Yeap
