Context URL and the links it contains are invalid

[WesIngwersen]

openLCA JSON_LD typically contains
@context":"http://greendelta.github.io/olca-schema/context.jsonld
which breaks

It refers to what appears to be this file

olca-schema/context.jsonld

Line 1 in 03a7953

{

which itself contains URLs for the schema that break

It just needs to be added to the "docs" folder so that it appears as a static resource

[msrocka]

copied it to the docs folder so that the URL http://greendelta.github.io/olca-schema/context.jsonld should work now.

which itself contains URLs for the schema that break

note that these are not URLs but namespace URIs

[bkuczenski]

thanks

I remember when URIs came out with XML, but to this day I do not see the value in including namespace URIs that don't resolve as valid URLs. In this case, while the context.jsonld file might be valid under the JSON-LD spec, I don't see any value with it otherwise, either for machines or humans.

These URIs (or IRIs) are an essential part of the linked data specification and the semantic stack: they serve as identifiers of things (and do not have to resolve to something). With these URIs, the property unit in a JSON document would expand to http://openlca.org/schema/v1.0/unit. And in another document with another context unit could mean something different than in the openLCA schema (and would expand to another URI). True, that it is nice when such an URI resolves to the documentation of that thing that it describes, but the main purpose here is to get identifiers without clashes... That said, as data sets in the openLCA schema are not used as linked data, I agree that this is overhead without much value.
