geo:Geometry

Definition

A coherent set of direct positions in space. The positions are held within a Spatial Reference System (SRS).

Scope

Parent class(es): Spatial Object (http://www.opengis.net/ont/geosparql#SpatialObject).

CDIF
Definition

Abstract supertype of GeoCoordinates and GeoShape - the union-type collapse target for schema:geo on a SpatialExtent. The JSON anyOf admits either subtype.

schema:identifier

Definition

The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of [[Thing]], such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#identifierBg) for more details.

Scope

Domain: Thing (https://schema.org/Thing). Range: PropertyValue (https://schema.org/PropertyValue), Text (https://schema.org/Text), URL (https://schema.org/URL).

CDIF
Definition

The primary identifier for the dataset; other identifiers should be listed in the sameAs field. Schema.org has three ways of encoding identifiers-- a text description, a URL, or by using the schema:PropertyValue field. The Science on Schema.org guidance strongly recommends using the PropertyValue approach. see https://github.com/ESIPFed/science-on-schema.org .... Dataset.md#identifier. Ideally, for any given data provided they would provide identifiers either all as strings or all as identifier_type.

Scope

@id - resolvable URI for the geometry node.
