In some places I use e.g. (resource instanceof Individual) , but in
others it seems I need resource.canAs(Individual.class). If you have
brief guidelines on when to use what, I would appreciate that. A
specific case is punning in an OntModel. Is that a case where
canAs(Individual.class
instanceof applies to Java classes. It is a feature of the programming
language.
To see if an instance is of data-declared class, which is a separate
concept, use getOntClass, hasOntClass or listOntClass methods on Individual.

OntClass tech = model.getOntClass(ns + "Technicals");
OntClass emp = model.getOntClass(ns + "Employee");
Individual ind = tech.createIndividual(ns + "Bob");
I am trying like below but it flush an error message.
if (ind instanceof tech){}
