APAIS (Australian Public Affairs Information Service) Thesaurus SKOS/RDF Data
This page contains links to an RDF description of the APAIS (Australian Public Affairs Information Service) Thesaurus.
You can also download the above as a zipped file (68 KB).
This RDF description of the UKAT was generated by Alistair Miles, and is based on an XML serialisation of the APAIS, which can be downloaded from the APAIS website.
N.B. the RDF description of the APAIS thesaurus linked from this page is NOT endorsed by the APAIS, and is published for expiremental purposes only.
Style note: this RDF description of the APAIS Thesaurus does not use URIs for concepts, because APAIS does not publish URIs for its thesaurus concepts. rdf:nodeID attributes are used throughout. Each concept is also given a skos:subjectIndicator property, pointing to the relevant page on the current APAIS website, which could reasonably be used as a basis for concept identity. (N.B. skos:subjectIndicator is an inverse functional property).
