Hi all Happy New Year
The property name: Perhaps we should borrow from the nomenclature of ordinal statistics and use ranked higher than (ranked lower than) Hi Martin Excellent questions! 1] Research questions that are enabled:- I envisaged questions of the form that Athanasios has suggested as well as the opposite; “Where are examples of “x” object type that have a condition of “y” or better that I can have access to for comparative observations” In the map world I also thought of the integration question “During the planning of this expedition was there a map at “x” scale or larger published and available within “y” distance of the expedition headquarters”. This was the type of question envisaged in the Arctic Cloud project. 2] Reasons for CRM rather than SKOS:- As George says we control CRMbase and not SKOS 😊. More substantially the solution of skos:OrderedCollection does not allow the integration of different terms from different sources into the same term ordered collection without physically merging them. While that could be overcome (it scales like a bag of bolts) the more substantial problem is it does not allow branching paths through the collection; for example Excellent > Good > Poor and Excellent > Average > Poor is not possible. Another concern is that all Collections are automatically ordered by their position in the implemented list: that is all collections are ordered even if there is no such ordering in the real world. 3] Coverage of problems:- Collection management: questions of collection morbidity, storage effectiveness and process validation Museology: Do different collection management regimes materially affect the short, medium and long term collection conservation Material Science: which materials have survived best Cultural Heritage Geo-informatics: What map scales were available, when, for what and for/by whom. Risk Management: What is the current state across institutions. What is the history of risk classification across the domain/region/institution type Audience Research: Many institutions are starting to collect Likert scale data as part of the feedback on exhibitions. This could then be linked to exhibition content to gain insight into the affective museum experience. This is what Erin Canning is working on.

These concerns are part of the methodology we follow, and most substantial. We must make sure they appear in the "principles".

This allows, for example, for an E55 Type instance representing the concept of "good" to follow the E55 Type instance representing the concept of "average". This property is transitive, and thus if "average" follows "poor", then "good" also follows "poor". In the domain of statistics, types that participate in this kind of relationship are called "Ordinal Variables"; as opposed to those without order which are called "Nominal Variables". This property allows for queries that select based on the relative position of participating E55 Types. Examples: * Good (E55) conceptually follows Average (E55) * Map Scale 1:10000 (E55) conceptually follows Map Scale 1:20000 (E55) * Fire Hazard Rating 4 (E55) conceptually follows Fire Hazard Rating 3 (E55) How does that seem?
