Re: DPCat: Data Processing Catalogue using DPV and DCAT(-AP)

Hi Bert

under this model a ROPA  that supports accountability requires a dataset of
additional evidence
per processing record. This is loosely coupled, allowing for many
representation schemes
including non-RDF ones. The high level metadata describing the data
processing, required for
compliance, is kept at the ROPARecord level.

A ROPA is modelled as a catalog of data processing activity records (
ROPARecords) describing
these accountability datasets. This makes no statement about more general
DCAT datasets which
could contain any data describing anything. Hence you should not convert an
arbitrary DCAT
dataset into a ROPARecord by asserting it is one, as in your example.

Sorry if I have misunderstood your query.
