Consider profiling the DOREMUS ontology?
Some have argued that when an ontology is complex (generating a lot of triples), it may be worth to split it into modules that all add axioms in the same namespace. Those modules could include:
- a very basic version that is just declaring all concrete classes and properties, together with the annotations for humans (
rdfs:label
,rdfs:comments
) -> the minimal-overhead version - a pure RDFS version that basically keeps all RDFS axioms from the OWL version and only contains a small choice of abstract superclasses
- a full OWL DL version
The NIF 2.0 seem to follow this pattern (see issue). Similarly, the Sensor Observation, Sample, and Actuator (SOSA) ontology, follow-up of the SSN ontology aims to have a core and various modules.
Even the erlangen CRM has followed this approach and this particular script was used.
