Dear All, Some extra actions must be applied before so called NULL-properties can be assigned to individuals: 1. Look for individuals that seems to be equal via e.g. owl:sameAs, owl:InverseFunctionalProperty etc. 2. Also look for properties that seems to be equal via e.g. owl:equivalentProperty. All the above is necessary because some individuals that seems to lack certain properties, might seem to have those properties after all. This way adding a NULL-property might even introduce inconstistencies! 3. Then the individuals that are considered as not explicitly or implicitly equal, are all declared disjoint (via owl:AllDifferent). Also ambiguity is resolved (point 3.). 4. Now the creation of so called NullProp classes ( point 2.2a from previous mail, can take a start). Regards, DJ
