Dataset does not appear in class heriarchy #226

nicholascar commented 1 month ago

The TERN Dataset class can be found by searching at the TERN Ontology Viewer but it doe snot appear in the class hierarchy to the let of the page, as RDFDataset does.

This has led to some confusion regarding the availability of the class (I haven't been able to point people to it easily).

There is also little text to differentiate the Dataset Shape from the class - the Shape only has a label, no description.

Hello @nicholascar, based on internal chat, we don't use Dataset but RDFDataset is used in EcoPlots; I think we meant to depreciate the class but didn't do it. It is probably overkill to create our own class; instead, we can use dcat:Dataset directly. We can expose the class and provide a relationship with other artefacts, and we can make the class optional as well. From our perspective, users can use both the classes. Let me know whether you have any preference.
