This document describes the schema available from the SKOS namespace.
The Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) is a common data model for sharing and linking knowledge organization systems via the Semantic Web.This document provides a brief description of the SKOS Vocabulary.
For detailed information about the SKOS Recommendation, please consult the SKOS Reference [SKOS-REFERENCE] or the SKOS Primer [SKOS-PRIMER].
The following table gives a non-normative overview of the SKOS
vocabulary; it replicates a table found in the (normative) SKOS
Reference [SKOS-REFERENCE].
This document can be referenced directly, by its own URI http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core.html, or
indirectly, by content negotiation from the SKOS namespace URI http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#
as described in Appendix C of SKOS Reference [SKOS-REFERENCE].
