[goodrelations] R: Products deliverd by Service

Thank you, Bene!
You're right, we want to distinguish products and services.
I think that your solution is suitable for our needs, we'll try it!
Thank you again.

Best regards,
Giuseppe D'Aniello.

Oggetto: Re: [goodrelations] Products deliverd by Service

Dear Giuseppe,

Sorry for the very late response.

Going over your email description, I am afraid I can get a clear idea
of your modeling scenario.
Please, could you provide some specific examples of what you would
like to represent as a "product" and as a "service" in your context?

>From your description, it seems that you might need to distinguish
between a "product" and a "service".
If this assumption is correct, one way in which you could do that
using GoodRelations, could be subtyping the class gr:ProductOrService
into the two classes "product" and "service" in your own project
namespace.

A minimal example in turtle, could be as follows:

@prefix rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> .
@prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> .
@prefix owl: <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#> .
@prefix gr: <http://purl.org/goodrelations/v1#> .

@prefix irp: <http://italian-research-project.org/yourproject#> .

irp: a owl:Ontology;
    owl:imports <http://purl.org/goodrelations/v1> .

irp:Product a owl:Class;
    rdfs:subClassOf gr:ProductOrService .

irp:Service a owl:Class;
    rdfs:subClassOf gr:ProductOrService .

Then, if you want to indicate which product (or instance of
irp:Product) delivers which service (or instance of irp:Service), you
could introduce the new "deliveredBy" property that you mention. A new
property, because as you also mention, the existing properties in
GoodRelations that relate a gr:ProductOrService to another
gr:ProductOrService do not seem to be fit for your purpose.

You can still use gr:ProductOrService as the domain and range of
"deliveredBy", however, if you want more granularity to capture the
direction of the "deliverdBy" relation, now you could use irp:Service
as the domain and irp:Product as the range to convey that a particular
service is delivered by a particular product. Or in turtle:

irp:deliveredBy a owl:ObjectProperty;
    rdfs:domain irp:Service;
    rdfs:range irp:Product .

(And you could even add an inverse property "delivers" to capture the
relation the other way around, etc.)

I hope this helps.
Would this approach suit your modeling needs?

Best regards,
Bene Rodriguez
