Re: [dxwg] DCAT: Proposal for an updated definition for the concept “dataset” (#1195)

I think the tricky thing about this question is that there are many ways in which datasets can be equivalent to each other that may be trivial for one use case and crucial for others. Being able to say that two datasets are the same dataset could mean that their data files have the same checksums, or that they differ only in format, or or that they differ only in metadata, or that they differ only in translating from one unit of measure to another, etc. I think it could be useful to define terms that describe the different types of equivalence, if there were a tractable list of useful equivalencies.
