schema:Role

Definition

Represents additional information about a relationship or property. For example a Role can be used to say that a 'member' role linking some SportsTeam to a player occurred during a particular time period. Or that a Person's 'actor' role in a Movie was for some particular characterName. Such properties can be attached to a Role entity, which is then associated with the main entities using ordinary properties like 'member' or 'actor'.\n\nSee also [blog post](https://blog.schema.org/2014/06/16/introducing-role/).

Scope

Parent class(es): Intangible (https://schema.org/Intangible).

Definition

For more granularity on how a person contributed to a Dataset, use schema:Role. The schema.org documentation does not state that the Role type is an expected data type of author, creator and contributor, but that is addressed in this blog post (http://blog.schema.org/2014/06/introducing-role.html). see https://github.com/ESIPFed/science-on-schema.org/blob/develop/guides/Dataset.md#roles-of-people

Scope

An Agent (Person / Organization) playing a named role within a provenance activity. Used when the role assignment carries its own metadata (the role name, time bounds, etc.) - otherwise schema:agent / schema:participant point directly at the Agent.
