I am trying to understand the various ways of using dcat:DataService. I created this little graphic:
Until now my understanding of dcat:servesDataset was literal: the service delivers dcat:Datasets, as in: it delivery meta-data.
But that's wrong? It means that the service delivers data, described by the dcat:Datasets it serves?
So... is the whole circle needed for data delivered by an dcat:DataService? In example 12 the :dataset-004 doesn't look that useful.
My current understanding is, that it is a question of the point of view: do I want to create a catalog of services? Then I emphasize the dcat:DataService and don't need dcat:Datasets.
Or is a dcat:DataServicemerely another way to access the data, then I emphasize the dcat:Dataset.
