TAPIR doesn't specify an official way to "map" equivalent concepts from different conceptual schemas. Ideally this should be provided by a ConceptNameServer implemented as a complete service, but such service doesn't exist yet.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This page suggests a simple XML format to store this kind of information. TapirLink and PyWrapper are planning to use the same format.
|
||
|
|
||
|
First, a single file serves as an index of the existing translations between conceptual schemas:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<verbatim>
|
||
|
<mappingReferencesIndex>
|
||
|
<forSchema namespace="ns1">
|
||
|
<ref location="ns1_references.xml"/>
|
||
|
</forSchema>
|
||
|
<forSchema namespace="ns2">
|
||
|
<ref location="ns2_references.xml"/>
|
||
|
</forSchema>
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
</mappingReferencesIndex>
|
||
|
</verbatim>
|
||
|
|
||
|
And then each translation is defined in a separate file:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<verbatim>
|
||
|
<mappingReferences for="ns1">
|
||
|
<baseConcept id="id1">
|
||
|
<ref>
|
||
|
<concept id="id_of_equivalent_concept_1"/>
|
||
|
</ref>
|
||
|
</baseConcept>
|
||
|
<baseConcept id="id2">
|
||
|
<ref>
|
||
|
<concept id="id_of_equivalent_concept_2"/>
|
||
|
</ref>
|
||
|
<ref>
|
||
|
<concept id="id_of_equivalent_concept_3"/>
|
||
|
</ref>
|
||
|
</baseConcept>
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
</mappingReferences>
|
||
|
</verbatim>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Equivalent concepts inside "ref" can belong to different conceptual schemas.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that a mapping ns1->ns2 may not be the exact opposite of ns2->ns1.@

|

...maybe other elements in the future for richer mappings?...
