Re: Biological Entity information in Bioschemas

Hello Leyla, all

Thank you for circulating the information and documents.

I am fine with declaring distinct property type for refering to various 
types of sites.

     i. collectionlocation -> Place,geographicalPlace,
     ii.   biolocation

What I am now missing is why use only min value/max value  as filler for 
'biolocation'.
I was wondering if we should extend and create a new type: 'Site', which 
could be inspired by http://schema.org/Place but could have properties 
such as 'startAt' and 'endsAt' where the filler would be 'biocoordinate' 
against a reference genome or other bioreference point.

We may also want to revisit what Scientific Entity and if Biological 
Entity can be further categorized into  MaterialEntities or Processes.

Best wishes

Philippe
