| Name: | AOS AGROVOC Concept Server foundation ontology model |
|---|---|
| Submitted by: | MargheritaSini |
| Also Known As: | AGROVOC Concept Server OWL Model, ASC, AOS |
| Intent: | Act as a basic model for Agricultural Related Ontologies, in particular for the AGROVOC Concept Server. The model clearly identify concepts (domain concepts) from terms (which are represented as instances). Both concepts and terms have specific relationships connecting them. |
| Domains: | |
| Competency Questions: | |
| Solution description: | - |
| Reusable OWL Building Block: | 1 (740) |
| Consequences: | This model can be compared to the LIR model. A mapping between the two model exists. Therefore, using the AOS will make your ontology compatible with the LIR and therefore the NeOn Toolkit. |

The AOS AGROVOC Concept Server fundation ontology model Content OP locally defines the following ontology elements:
c_geographic_concept_above_country_level (owl:Class) This concept is used to group all geographical regions encompassing one or more countries (e.g. Central Africa includes many countries). See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Africa
c_geographic_concept_above_country_level page
isUsedToMake (owl:ObjectProperty) Y <is used to make> X. A substance or a product Y from which a product X can be mainly (in terms of importance) obtained. E.g. "cow milk" <is used to make> "cheddar cheese"; "hops" <is used to make> "beer" (see <composed_of>);

isMadeFrom page objectProperty (owl:ObjectProperty) Root Property for all object properties. Introduced in order to make querying and organization of properties easier.
objectProperty page hasRelatedConcept (owl:SymmetricProperty) The most generic relationship to relate two domain concepts. This is used if two concepts are related and none of the more speciifc relationships can be applied. It is also used for backward compatibility to thesauri, i.e. all the more specific relationships can be resolved to this relationship and will translate to the <related term> or RT thesaurus relationship.

compose page isComposedOf (owl:TransitiveProperty) X <is composed of> Y. A relation in which X composed of Y holds is one where Y consists of the material or substance of which X is made. This relation also subsumes <ingredient_of> and <substance_of> relations. E.g. "blood" <is composed of> "blood cell", ""blood gas", "blood lipid", "blood protein"; "beer" <is composed of> "water", "yeast", (and by inheritance "hops" c.f. <made_from>);
isComposedOf page isPartOf (owl:TransitiveProperty) Y <is part of> X. A part Y that compose an entity X. Use this relationship when none of the other partitivity relations (<component>, <composed_of>, <portion>, <member>, <includes_subprocess>) apply. E.g. in a plant ontology: {PlantPart} <is part of> {Taxonomic};
isPartOf page hasPortion (owl:TransitiveProperty) X <has portion> Y. A mass X from which a piece Y can be taken. E.g. "plant" <has portion> "cutting"; "chicken" <has portion> "chicken skin"; "a loaf of bread" <has portion> "a slice";
hasPortion page isPortionOf (owl:TransitiveProperty) Y <is portion of> X. Relation between a mass X and a piece Y taken from the mass. E.g. "cutting" <is portion of> "plant"; "chicken skin" <is portion of> "chicken"; "a slice" <is portion of> "a loaf of bread";
isPortionOf page isSubCategoryOf (owl:TransitiveProperty) Relationship that is used in order to model the hierarchy of a classification scheme. A category can be in different positions in the hierarchy depending on the classification scheme you are looking at. Therefore, this relationship should not be instantiated directly to create the hierarchy, but rather a sub property specifically created for a particular classification scheme.
isSubCategoryOf page hasSubCategory (owl:TransitiveProperty) Inverse relationship of the <is sub category of> relationship. This relationship is used to build a hierarchy of categories within a classification scheme. A <has sub category> B means that B is a sub-category of A, i.e. B is a more specific category than A, lower in the hierarchy. Since one category can be in different places in the hierarchy in different classification schemes, do not instantiate this relationship directly, but use the sub-properties specifically for the classification scheme for which the sub-category relationship holds. For example use the <has ASC sub category> relationship to state that A <has ASC sub category> B in the Agris Subject Categories (ASC) classification scheme.
hasSubCategory page isFaoPaSubCategoryOf (owl:TransitiveProperty) This relationship describes the hierarchy of categories in the FAO Priority Areas (FAO PA) classification scheme. Its inverse relationship is 'has FAO PA sub category'. Use this relationship to declare that one category is the sub category of another category in the FAO PA classification scheme.
isFaoPaSubCategoryOf page isAscSubCategoryOf (owl:TransitiveProperty) This relationship describes the hierarchy of categories in the Agris Subject Categories (ASC) classification scheme. Its inverse relationship is 'has ASC sub category'. Use this relationship to declare that one category is the sub category of another category in the ASC classification scheme.
isAscSubCategoryOf page hasTranslation (owl:SymmetricProperty) X <has translation> Y . Word X that has the same meaning of Y in another language. E.g. "vache" (FR) <has translation> "cow" (EN); "cow" (EN) <has translation> "vache" (FR);
hasTranslation page takenFromSource (owl:FunctionalProperty) The source (website, dictionary, thesaurus, classification scheme, terminology system, etc.) where the definition has been taken from.
takenFromSource page hasImageSource (owl:FunctionalProperty) The source of an image is the institution, web site, etc. where the image has been taken from.
hasImageSource page hasImageLink (owl:FunctionalProperty) The link to the physical image, for example the URL, where the image is available.
