Ah, OK I get it now. I'd describe additionalType as allowing you to refer to 'Things' that aren't schema.org 'Things'. Whereas CreativeWork's 'about' property allows you to refer to 'Things' that *are* schema.org 'Things'. I can now see how my category requirement could be expressed using additionalType. I'm not sure if there's general consensus that categorization/tagging is properly seen as a typing exercise. Looking forward to comments from the group... --- Raj The OGC: Making location count. http://www.opengeospatial.org/ogc/organization/staff/rsingh On May 8, at 8:27 PM, Dan Brickley <danbri@danbri.org> wrote: > On 9 May 2013 01:15, Raj Singh <rsingh@opengeospatial.org> wrote: >> Could you provide an example of how to use additionalType?
