Introduction

Excerpt
This page details how to represent the information definition outlined in Complex and simple types using fields from ISO 19115 and DCAT. For example, the queryDatasets operation may return DCAT structured data.

Info
DCAT2 is used in https://www.europeandataportal.eu/en DCAT3 is currently under development. It can be found at: https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-3/

Table of Contents

Purpose

The profiles are created:

in order to improve the current information definition. It may be, for example, possible to change the terms and definitions to be more in line with accepted international standards.
- once this has happened, the updated terms and definitions can be used to write requirements on data set catalogues.
in order to allow implementers using different vocabularies to map to the appropriate term.

Mappings

Info
A general mapping from ISO 19115 to DCAT is available at https://semiceu.github.io/GeoDCAT-AP/releases/#rdf-syntax-bindings-for-inspire-and-iso19115-metadata-elements. The mappings below make use of this where possible.

Info

title	ISO 19115 versions

The mappings use ISO 19115:2003. There are more recent versions of the standard available e.g. 19115:2014. This doesn't affect datasets too much. Mapping to the same fields.

Each table includes:

the current information definition
the ISO 19115:2003 field
the DCAT3 equivalent
the DCAT2 equivalent
general notes. This column also contains ideas for change requests.

Dataset

dcat:Dataset

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2

rename property name to "identifier".

dct:description

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2/#Property:resource_description

The description of the dataset

dcat:theme (assoc)

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2/#Property:resource_theme

The values will need to be represented as URIs

Use the PANS AIM data catalogue terms (from App1-1) as URLs:

The list of possible terms should be registered/published in order to allow URLs to be used. Recommendation is to use a controlled vocabulary.

Consider using AIRM identifiers for resources e.g.

dcat:theme": "urn:aero:airm:1.0.0:ContextualModel:ATMBusinessTerms:Aerodrome"

dct:format

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2/#Property:distribution_format

Example: Baseline or Delta
(Note: dct:format is an element of the wider Dublin Core metadata set)

MD_DataIdentification.extent.EX_Extent.description004 - Indication that this is an AIRAC update

dct:accrualMethod

The encoding conformance

prov:wasGeneratedBy

https://www.w3.2datasetwas_generated_by

Uses an instance of prov:Activity with attribute:

prov:used

If the dataset was generated as part of the AIRAC cycle, then the value of this attribute will be “AIRAC”.

MD_DataIdentification.resourceConstraints.MD_Constraints.useLimitations

Can also use e.g. MD_LegalConstraints, MD_SecurityConstraintsodrl:hasPolicy2resource_access_rights

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2/#Property:resource_license

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2/#Property:resource_rights

Note

It is not clear if this is the best DCAT2 field. The semantics do not match easily.

We could consider e.g. prov:wasDerivedFrom

"Release Type" makes more sense. A request has been raised to the DCAT3 WG https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1289
