Classes

Actorc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/net/provenance/ns#Actor

is defined by
http://purl.org/net/provenance/ns#
This class is deprecated and will be removed from the Provenance Vocabulary in the next revision. prv:Actor was deprecated in the process of making the Provenance Vocabulary a specialization of W3C's PROV-O. Hence, use one of the more specific classes prv:HumanAgent and prv:NonHumanAgent instead; or, if such a specialization is unsuitable for the use case at hand, directly use the general class prov:Agent as defined by PROV-O.

Artifactc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/net/provenance/ns#Artifact

is defined by
http://purl.org/net/provenance/ns#
This class is deprecated and will be removed from the Provenance Vocabulary in the next revision. prv:Artifact was deprecated in the process of making the Provenance Vocabulary a specialization of W3C's PROV-O. Hence, use prov:Entity (or the more specific prv:Immutable) instead.

This property may be used to make the relationship between different version of a data item explicit. More precisely, this property refers to an immediately preceding version of a data item; hence, the new version (i.e. the subject) has been created using the old version (i.e. the object). We strongly encourage to also describe this creation of the new version explicitly.

descriptiondp "The Provenance Vocabulary provides classes and properties for describing provenance of Web data. The vocabulary focuses on two main use cases: 1.) It enables consumers of Web data to describe provenance of data retrieved from the Web and of data derived from such Web data. 2.) It enables providers of Web data to publish provenance-related metadata about their data. Notice, the vocabulary is not intended for describing provenance of other kinds of Web content. The Provenance Vocabulary is designed as a Web data specific specialization of the W3C PROV Ontology (PROV-O); classes and properties provided by the vocabulary are domain specific extensions of the more general concepts introduced in PROV-O. As a consequence, any Provenance Vocabulary based description of provenance can be easily interpreted and exchanged according to the W3C PROV family of standards."@en
