Change log for the AusTraits Plant Dictionary (APD) Ontology

APD Version 2.0.0

Structural changes, resulting from peer review:

  • removing all mapping to OWL classes
  • indicating that matches to databases, thesauruses without actually resolvable identifies are examples not skos:exactMatch, etc.
  • adding all SWEET sub-namespaces to namespace declaration
  • in APD_traits_input.csv, collapsing multiple columns (e.g. measured_structure_1, measured_structure_2, etc.) into a single ;-delimited column; this allows an undefined number of values for each field corresponding changes made to R-scripts to build rdf representations, website from the new csv format

Create using_the_APD.qmd

  • creating a document with sample code to explore/use the APD

Minor changes to traits:

  • adding many additional mapping to Plant Trait Ontology, Crop Ontology, FLOPO, EnvThes
  • adding 3 new traits (bud_length, bud_width, buds_per_inflorescence)
  • edits to plant_growth form and woodiness, based on review of Complete Traits manuscript
  • incorporate suggested changes from @reykt (issue #24, issue #25)
