DBpedia Data ID is an ontology with the goal of describing LOD datasets via RDF files in a uniform way. Established vocabularies like DCAT, VoID, Prov-O and SPARQL Service Description are used for maximum compatibility.
DataID
Any type of agent without a specific function.
Agent
A description of one or more datasets. The DataID itself.
DataID is a way of describing Linked-Open-Data (LOD) datasets including content, authors, licenses and provenance via RDF files. Making your data accessible to others is the basic idea of LOD and is your contribution to a universal data give and take. To create DataIDs alongside datasets is the best way of announcing a new dataset and its updates to a global community by placing it in the LOD cloud. Validating and delivering metadata files in a uniform way, as well as providing the ability to query for datasets are main objectives of the DBpedia/DataID project.

Dataset
A way to access a dataset, like a dump file, an endpoint, an API etc.
Distribution
A specific distribution, which is accessible via an access url and can be queried with the SPARQL language.
Sparql Endpoint
A specific distribution, which is accessible via an access url and provides data as a web service in a certain format.
Service Endpoint
A single data dump file representing your dataset.
single dump file
A dedicated directory holding multiple files of the same dataset.
dataset files in one directory
Linkset
points to other dataset containing related data
similar data
provides the uri of a short preview of the data provided by a distribution (do not link to the download or accessURL with this property)
data preview
provides a version string for any entity
version
some agent generally connected to the dataset, their function to be specified by their rdf:type
associated agent
Checksum of a file to check for correctness
checksum
Set of links to another dataset contained in this dataset
contains links
A crc32 checksum
crc32 checksum
The name of the graph of this distribution in a SPARQL endpoint
Graph name
software needed to access the data in this distribution
software requirement
A md5 checksum
md5 checksum

todo
AgentRoles provide agents with the ability to execute certain actions as well as demand certain responsibilities, which are defines by the instances of this concept.
responsible actions
AgentRoles provide access rights as well as responsibilities an agent has to attend to in order to fullfill this role.
Responsible actions should describe actions pertaining to responsibilities an agent is supposed to do
entitled action
AgentRoles provide access and modification rights to an agent.
Entitled actions should comprise actions pertaining to access/modification restrictions.
defines the access rights for DataId related entities
access level
Defines the scope of an authority-context. An Agent has the right to execute authorized actions in this scope (e.g. a single DataId and all it's members).
authorized for
Provides an agent the ability to execute authorized actions in a certain scope (e.g. to modify the metadata of a dataset)
Adds a role an agent can administer in the scope provided by the AuthorityEntityContext, thereby allowing for certain actions an agent can execute.
authority agent role
AgentRoles allows an agent to execute certain actions.
allowes for
An AuthorityEntityContext is valid for a specific Agent from a certain point in time.
valid from
An AuthorityEntityContext is valid for a specific Agent until a certain point in time.
valid until
private
restricted access only to authorized agents
semi-private
read-only access to any agent, restiricted modification rights
public
no restriction on read and modification rights
response to contact attempt
response to life-cycle event
publishing decision
update DataId
agent supervision
read content right
modify content right
delete content right
modify authorized agents
modify entity access level
modify agent roles
A visitor/anonymous agent has only read rights on public and semi-private documents
guest
Creator of the resource. An agent that is credited with a main part in the initial creation of the resource.
creator
Maintainer of the dataset. An agent that ensures the technical correctness, accessibility and up-to-dateness of a dataset.
maintainer
Contributor to the resource. An agent that was involved in creating or maintaining the resource but does not have the main part in this activity.
contributor
Contact agent. An agent that can be contacted for general requests about the resource.
contact
Publisher of the dataset. An agent that makes the dataset accessible online on a server or repository without necessarily being involved in its creation.
