Re: [dxwg] Distributions, services and implementation-resources

maybe dcat:derivedDistribution  for distributions that serialize (for spatial data) different scales or map projections, upsampling or down sampling.
dcat:serviceDistribution would be an end point that supports parameterized request for filtering, subsetting, and maybe does thing like dynamic visualization. ERDDAP and THREDDS servers, OGC servers would support this kind of access. 

I like the idea of an operational test for 'information equivalence' between representations A and B to be that one can transform A to B and the resulting B back to A, and get (with acceptable computational approximations for numeric data) the same A (all data elements are present and have same values), 

One suggestion from a related conversation is that a distribution should include a property specifying the nature of the relationship of the offered serialization to a 'canonical representation'.
