VIVO Documentation
Old Release
This documentation relates to an old version of VIVO, version 1.12.x.
Looking for another version? See all documentation.
A concept is typically represented in VIVO as two triples, one declaring the URI of the concept as a skos:Concept, and one providing a text label for the concept. A third triple may use the skos:prefLabel to repeat the text label for those applications expecting the concept to have a preferred label. The triples might look like those below:
<http://vivo.myschool.edu> rdf:type skos:Concept . <http://vivo.myschool.edu> rdfs:label "Molecular Biology"^^@en . <http://vivo.myschool.edu> skos:prefLabel "Molecular Biology"^^@en .
Light blue – entities dependent on the entity being modeled. These will typically be created along with the entity being modeled, and should be removed if the entity being modeled is removed.
Green – independent entities. These typically pre-exist in your VIVO when adding the entity being modeled. These should not be removed if the entity being modeled is removed.
