ISSUE-172: purpose of prov:hasAnchor

TLebo

purpose of prov:hasAnchor

State:
CLOSED
Product:
Accessing and Querying Provenance
Raised by:
Timothy Lebo
Opened on:
2011-11-23
Description:
1)
The phrase
"for the purpose of provenance information"
in the sentence below does not seem meaningful. Is the objective to "highlight" a few Entity's URIs within the RDF content so that consumers are guided when initially exploring of the entire RDF graph found?

---
3.3 Resource presented as RDF

"Another new RDF property, prov:hasAnchor, is defined to allow the RDF content to specify one or more entity-URIs of the RDF document for the purpose of provenance information (similar to the use of the "anchor" link relation in HTML). "
---


2)
Could the similarity to HTML anchors be elaborated?

Thanks,
Tim

Related notes:

I've taken a shot at clarifying this:

[[
The RDF property, prov:hasAnchor, is defined to allow the RDF content to specify an entity-URI used in the provenance information to refer to the RDF document. This corresponds to use of the "anchor" parameter in an HTTP "provenance" Link header field, or an "anchor" link relation in an HTML <link> element, which similarly indicate a URI used by the provenance information to refer to the described document.
