Dublin Core Mapping Comments [by 7 April 2013]

Filed under: Dublin Core,Provenance — Patrick Durusau @ 4:21 am

Stuart Sutton, Managing Director, DCMI, calls on the Dublin Core community to comment on a mapping from Dublin Core terms to the PROV provenance ontology.

His call reads:

The DCMI Metadata Provenance Task Group [1] is collaborating with the W3C Provenance Working Group [2] on a mapping from Dublin Core terms to the PROV provenance ontology [3], currently a W3C Proposed Recommendation. More precisely, the document describes a partial mapping from DCMI Metadata Terms [4] to the PROV-O OWL2 ontology [5] — a set of classes and properties usable for representing and interchanging information about provenance. Numerous terms in the DCMI vocabulary provide information about the provenance of a resource. Translating these terms into PROV relates this information explicitly to the W3C provenance model.

The mapping is currently a W3C Working Draft. The final state of the document will be that of a W3C Note, to be published as part of a suite of documents in support of a W3C Recommendation for provenance interchange [6].

DCMI would like to point to the W3C Note as a DCMI Recommended Resource and therefore encourages the Dublin Core community to provide feedback and take part in the finalization of the mapping.

The deadline for all comments is 7 April 2013. We recommend that comments be provided directly to the public W3C list for comments: public-prov-comments@w3.org [7], ideally with a Cc: to DCMI’s dc-provenance list [8]. Comments sent only to the dc-provenance list will be summarized on the W3C list and addressed, and discussions on the W3C list will be summarized back on the dc-provenance list when appropriate.
