dct:coverage on dcat:Distribution does not conform to DCAT-AP #79
Comments
Isn't it a opendata.swiss issue too...? What would be the consequence of removing this property? I am convinced it should be removed, but we should also think about the consequences.. |

I would need an example of a Dataset/Ressource at hand to be able to understand from a user's pespective what need(s) we want to cover with this change. |
Hi @andreasamsler, in this case there wouldn't be a big change for the user. The catalogue would be structured slighlty differently, so that the information may (it depends how opendata.swiss would implement this change) be presented in slightly in a different way. It's way more a compatibility issue with DCAT-AP: this value does not exist there and this kind of information is carried through dct:spatial and dct:temporal instead. This may lead to issues like the information is not made available on data.europa.eu. (Note that I'm not taking into account the topic "dcat:Distributions Usage note should not encourage the usage of Distributions as Dataseries #112", since it's only indirectly linked to it). |
@metaodi and @andreasamsler I have launched a discussion about this topic of modeling a Series as Distributions on DCAT-W3C: the suggestions there are quite good. Feel free to jump right into that discussion: w3c/dxwg#1429 For

Property: dct:coverage
Class:dcat:Dataset and dcat:Distribtution
Conformance Problem:
dcat:Distribution
there is no DCAT property to replacedct:coverage
. But this is because Distribution properties all relate to resolution, format, size, language, etc. that is to properties that refer to the same content in different physical representations. On opendata.swissdct:coverage
is used to model dataseries as distributions of a dataset. But this considered bad practice in DCAT-AP, see dcat:Distributions Usage note should not encourage the usage of Distributions as Dataseries #112Proposal:
dct:coverage
ondcat:Distribution
and encourage the use ofdcat:DataSeries
(https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-3/#Class:Dataset_Series) as soon as it is ready to be added to DCAT-AP CH. This has to be done in correspondence with dcat:Distributions Usage note should not encourage the usage of Distributions as Dataseries #112Changed Proposal: Watch what happens on DCAT-AP and DCAT regarding the modeling on Series of Data, since this seems to be a topic where there is some movement in the DCAT community.
