Dear all,

I have the following problem: how to represent a KOS which contains organisms with scientific names and common names in SKOS?

example for plants: potatoes and "Solanum tuberosum", will these be 2 skos:concepts? NOTE: they may be both descriptors in the KOS, for indexing purposes. Both can have multiple non-descriptors...

<skos:Concept rdf:about="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#potatoes"> <skos:prefLabel xml:lang="en">potatoes</skos:prefLabel> </skos:Concept>

<skos:Concept rdf:about="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#Solanum_tuberosum"> <skos:prefLabel xml:lang="en">Solanum tuberosum</skos:prefLabel> <skos:exactMatch rdf:resource="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#potatoes"/> </skos:Concept>

OR

<skos:Concept rdf:about="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#potatoes"> <skos:prefLabel xml:lang="en">potatoes</skos:prefLabel> </skos:Concept>

<skos:Concept rdf:about="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#Solanum_tuberosum"> <skos:prefLabel xml:lang="LA">Solanum tuberosum</skos:prefLabel> <skos:exactMatch rdf:resource="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#potatoes"/> </skos:Concept>

OR

<skos:Concept rdf:about="http://www.fao.org/aims/aos/agrovoc#potatoes"> <skos:prefLabel xml:lang="en">potatoes</skos:prefLabel> <skos:prefLabel xml:lang="LA">Solanum tuberosum</skos:prefLabel> </skos:Concept>

What if in the terminology i use both scientific name and common name are preferred and they are both marked in English? ... i cannot use 2 skos:prefLabel for same language...

Thanks

Margherita
