Re: SKOS extension representation for agrovoc webservices

Hi Ahsan,

Will this solve your problem (based on the example at [1])...

--- begin example, Turtle syntax ---

@prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> .
@prefix skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#> .
@prefix skosxl: <http://www.w3.org/2008/05skos-xl#> .
@prefix ex: <http://example.org/skos-schema-extension/> .
@prefix my: <http://example.org/my-vocab/> .

# the concept of FAO
my:C1 a skos:Concept ;
  skosxl:prefLabel my:L1 ;
  skosxl:altLabel my:L2 .

# the label "FAO"
my:L1 a skosxl:Label ;
  skosxl:literalForm "FAO"@en .

# the label "Food and Agriculture Organization"
my:L2 a skosxl:Label ;
  skosxl:literalForm "Food and Agriculture Organization"@en .

# define a label relation for acronyms
ex:acronym rdfs:subPropertyOf skosxl:labelRelation .

# state the acronym relation between "FAO" and "Food and Agriculture Organization"
my:L2 ex:acronym my:L1 .

--- end example, Turtle syntax ---

...or translated into RDF/XML using [2] ...

--- begin example, RDF/XML syntax ---

    <rdfs:subPropertyOf rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2008/05skos-xl#labelRelation" />
  </rdf:Description>
</rdf:RDF>

--- end example, RDF/XML syntax

...?
