Tagged under "Schema / element set"
Term definition:
Any set of data/metadata elements, like XML schemas, RDF schemas or less formalized set of descriptors. In the VEST Registry, we distinguish between a pure metadata element set (defining only basic classes and properties, like an XML schema or an RDF schema or a set of descriptors) and a real ontology defining also relationships and axioms and expressing complex models. Real ontologies are categorized under Ontology.
"A metadata element set defines classes and attributes used to describe entities of interest. In Linked Data terminology, such element sets are generally made concrete through RDF Schemas or OWL Web Ontology Language ontologies, the term "RDF vocabulary" often being used as an umbrella for these."
