Part of the ontology for disease prevention in CAOS
Dimension specification: Association of a dimension with its possible values
Feature specification: Attribute + value
Concept
Relation (type of)
Dimension (Subdivision criterion)
Data categories related to terminological ontologies - registered in ISOcat
Data category
Definition
feature specification
formal specification of a characteristic of a concept by means of an attribute-value pair
attribute in a feature specification
part of a feature specification which specifies the feature name
value in a feature specification
part of a feature specification which specifies the content of an attribute
dimension
attribute whose possible values allow a distinction between some of the subconcepts of the concept in question
dimension specification
the association of a dimension with its possible values

We strongly recommend that this new structure is integrated in future revisions of TBX (ISO 30042:2008) and new versions of ISO standards on terminology databases.

The revised DANTERM model - Characteristics
Values of attributes will be concepts in separate entries in the term base.
Revisiting associative relations All associative relations will be registered as characteristics. The attribute corresponds to the relation, and the value is the related concept, i.e. the value will be another concept in the term base.
