aidig has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/dxwg: == Unclear classification of dataset/resources == # Problem statement: Unclear classification of dataset/resources Section [5.5 Classifying dataset types ](https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-2/#classifying-dataset-types) states the following: > The type or genre of a **dataset** can be indicated using the **dct:type property**. It is recommended that the value of the property is taken from a well governed and broadly recognised set of resource types, such as the **DCMI Type Vocabulary** [DCTERMS], the **MARC Genre/Terms Scheme**, the [ISO-19115-1] **MD_Scope codes,** **the DataCite resource types**, or the **PARSE.Insight content-types** from Re3data [RE3DATA-SCHEMA]. The property dct:type on dcat:Dataset is inherited from rdf:Resource but since the majority out of the recommended controlled vocabularies contain the indiviual '_dataset_' this could practically present a number of implementation issues when applied to dcat:Dataset without further extension as the provided codelists are for classifying resourcer on a more general level - datasets being one of the main types.... Here a quick stab at a general mapping between the different resource types (with DCMI as the foundation mapped to selected elements from MD ScopeCodes and DataCite Resource Types) [DCMI type vocabulary](https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-type-vocabulary/2003-02-12/) | [ISO19115 MD_ScopeCode](https://data.noaa.gov/resources/iso19139/schema/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#MD_ScopeCode) (excerpt) | [DataCite ResourceType](https://schema.datacite.org/meta/kernel-4.1/include/datacite-resourceType-v4.1.xsd) (excerpt) ------------ | ------------- | ------------- | Dataset | Dataset | Dataset | Text (Document)? | Text| | Sound | - see PresentationFormCode | Sound/Audiovisual data? | Image | - see PresentationFormCode | Image | Event | - Event| | InteractiveResource | - Interactive ressource| | Service | Service | Service | Software | Software | Software | PhysicalObject | Feature? | Physical Object | Collection | Collection | Collection | _StillImage_ _- Type of image?_| | _MovingImage_ _- Type of image?_| Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1187 using your GitHub accountReceived on Thursday, 5 December 2019 15:02:32 UTC
