Resource Types

Resource

All resources inherit the global properties of the generic resource type

• rdf:type
  • etc.
• dc:title
  • e.g. Wodeham Oxford Reportatio
  • e.g. Wodheam Abbreviatio
  • Beethoven's 9th 1st Redaction
  • Beethoven's 9th 2nd Redaction
  • Moby Dick the Novel
  • Moby Dick the Screen Play
• dc:description
• sctap:shortId
• ldp:inbox

workGroup

• dcterms:isPartOf
  • if the workGroup is not level=1 it must specify its parent part. This must be another workGroup.
• dcterms:hasPart
  • a work group can take either another workGroup or a work as its direct part (or child)
• sctap:hasExpression
  • every work group should list every expression contained within it, no matter what level
• sctap:level
  • 1,2,3
• sctap:citation
  • a string offering a best practice example of how this should be cited

Text

A super class for grouping work with expressions, manifestations, and transcriptions

Work

• role:author
• dcterms:isPartOf
  • a work should indicate the immediate parent workGroup of which it is a part.
• dcterms:hasPart
  • a Work (unlike a WorkGroup) can take no workGroups or Works as children and thus can only have a top level Expression as its immediate child part.
• sctap:citation
• sctap:hasExpression
• sctap:hasCanonicalExpression
• sctap:level

textItem

A super class for expressions, manifestations, and transcriptions

textItem Resources Chart

Global textItem Resource Properties

• role:author
• role:editor (is this global? I think maybe only a manifestation can have an editor)
• role:contributor
• sctap:citation

Expression

• rdf:type=http://scta.info/resource/expression
• sctap:status
• sctap:expressionType
  • e.g. available expressionTypes should be enumerated in the WorkType or WorkGroupType class
  • e.g. a Work within the WorkGroup where workGroupType="SentencesCommentaries" the value of expressionType given here must be one of the values of the availableExpressionType listed in that workGroupType. See WorkGroupType and WorkType below.
• sctap:hasManifestation
• sctap:hasCanonicalManifestation
• sctap:isPartOfTopLevelExpression
  • all non top level Expressions should point to the top level Expression of which they are a part.

Manifestation

• sctap:manfestationType
  • e.g.
  • manuscript
  • incunabula
  • earlyEdition
  • modernEdition
  • bornDigitalEdition
• sctap:hasCanonicalTranscription
• sctap:hasTranscription
• sctap:isManifestationOf
  • Value must be an Expression
• sctap:isOnSurface (only at item, block, and element level)
• sctap:isOnZone (only block, and element level)

Transcription

• sctap:transcriptionType
  • e.g.
  • diplomatic
  • critical
  • translation
• sctap:isTranscriptionOf
• sctap:hasXML
• sctap:hasDocument
• sctap:plaintext
• sctap:status
• Version Chain Properties
  • A transcription can forms part of a version chain, allows select transcriptions to be linked together in a version chain.
  • A version chain is not an RDF class, but an idea of transcriptions resources linked together by the following properties.
  • sctap:hasAncestor
    • indicates all previous versions within a version chain. An transcription MAY have many hasAncestor properties
  • sctap:hasDescendant
    • indicates all subsequent versions within a version chain. A transcription MAY have many hasDescendant properties
  • sctap:hasSuccessor
    • indicates the transcription immediately following this this transcription within the version chain. A transcription MAY have ONLY one hasSuccessor property
  • sctap:hasPredecessor
    • indicates the transcription immediately preceding this transcription within the version chain. A transcription MAY have ONLY one hasPredecessor property
  • sctap:isVersionDefault
    • Within a version chain, a transcription can be identified as the versionDefault. The versionDefault=true assertion indicates that this transcription that will be associated with a manifestation via the hasTranscription property and will be used for extraction purposes in processing. Only one transcription within a version chain should be the object of a manifestation's hasTranscription property, while each transcription within the version chain has a isTranscriptionOf property.
  • sctap:isHeadTranscription
    • No matter which version is the listed as the versionDefault the isHeadTranscription=true indicates which transcription stands at the top of the versionChain. the transcription with the isHeadTranscription=true will always have the highest versionOrderNumber within a series
  • sctap:versionOrderNumber
    • the versionOrderNumber indicates the order of a transcription within a version chain. The first transcription will always have the version number "0001" and the head transcription will always have the highest number within the series.
  • sctap:versionNo
    • A version Number 1.0.0 or 1.0.0. Ideally version number will match a git tag or or part of a git tag.
  • sctap:versionLabel
    • A human readable version label designed for display.

Note: The following are not classes but critical properties that that textItem classes can take that effectively divide textItem classes into subclasses

Global Structure properties

• sctap:structureType
  • structureCollection
  • sturctureItem
  • sturctureBlock
  • sturctureElement
• dcterms:isPartOf
  • a top level expression should point to the immediate parent Work (or WorkGroup) that contains the top level expression as a direct child
• dcterms:hasPart
  • the top level expression should list the immediate 2nd level child Expressions
• isPartOfTopLevelStructure
  • alias of isPartOfTopLevelExpression, isPartOfTopLevelManifestation, isPartOfTopLevelTranscription
  • applies at every level accept structureCollection level 1
• sctap:next
  • next should point to the next expression on the same level of the content hierarchy
  • obviously, a top level expression would not a have a next property because there is be definition now sibling of Expression of a top level Expression
• sctap:previous
  • next should point to the next expression on the same level of the content hierarchy
  • again, previous property does not apply to a top level Expression
• sctap:sectionOrderNumber
  • the order sequence position number among sibling Expression parts
• sctap:totalOrderNumber
  • the order sequence position number among all Expression parts on this level.
• sctap:level
  • the level of the expression within the Expression hierarchy

• materialStructureType=materialStructureCollection
• isMemberOf
  • each ancestor of this quire (codex should be listed)

• lrx
• lry
• ulx
• uly

• isMemberOf

  • each ancestor of this zone (surface, folio, quire, codex should be listed)

• Note on position/order

  • sctap:order?
    • default=1, where there is more than one zone for a given resource, (for example a paragraph that crosses from one column to the next) the zone should be given a order number so that the zones can be ordered correctly.
    • I think this should be removed and the manifestation pointing to more than one zone should indicate the order using a blank node, e.g hasZone->:bn->zone and order
