MONA Public Art Application Profile

Note

This application profile is under construction and may not fully reflect the current dataset. The pattern examples and Turtle data samples are subject to change.

Purpose

The purpose of this application profile is to document how MONA Public Art data is modelled for compatibility with the wider LINCS data model. This document provides patterns used in the mapping of MONA Public Art data which correspond to the categories of the main LINCS Application Profiles.

This document introduces classes and properties as used in this specific context (LINCS and the MONA Public Art dataset), without providing complete definitions for them. You can find the full definitions in the documentation of CIDOC CRM version 7.3.1 and other reference ontologies and vocabularies.

Dependencies

This section reports the ontologies, vocabularies, and authority files adopted in the MONA Public Art application profile. The tables below list the acronyms used to refer to each resource and the prefixes used to compose the URIs in Turtle code examples found in the document.

Artwork

A MONA artwork is a physical human-made thing. The MONA Public Art dataset contains information about the artwork, including its title, artist(s), producer(s) and MONA ID.

Title

A MONA artwork has one or more titles in French and/or English language.

Diagram
Application profile
NoteThe modelling of artwork titles follows the Name & Title basic pattern. See the corresponding section for more information. In this dataset, all artwork titles have type aat:300417193.

MONA ID

A MONA artwork has exactly one MONA ID, which is a unique identifier for the artwork.
