Dealing with Projects
Clear a project
When you want to delete all contents of a project, use the option Clear Data.
- Go to Global Data Management → Clear Data
Get existing data into a project
Load RDF data in a project
This is to load data such as classifications/codelists into your project. You can use it to load an RDF file.
For ontologies or similar vocabularies, use "Metadata - Namespaces and Import" (see below).
- Go to Global Data Management, Load Data
- Select the File by clicking on Browse. Keep all other default value.
- Click Submit
Import ontologies or vocabularies
- Go to Metadata → Namespaces and Import
- In box Imports, select a value for Add Import from:
- "Local project" for dedicated ontologies (FAO development)
- In window "Import for local project", select the Project you want
- Base URI will be filled automatically
- Transitive imports: Resolve from web
- "Local project" for dedicated ontologies (FAO development)
Get "new" data into a project
Clone an item, a branch, an entire code list
Create a new classification based on a new schema, class, etc...
Deal with versions
Create a version
- Go to Global Data Management → Versioning
- In box Versions, button Dump, click arrow
- Dump a new version
- assign an ID of choice
- Dump a new version to a different location
- assign an ID of choice
- Repository access: remote
- Repo configuration: GraphDB 10+ (no need to configure)
- Dump a new version
- When a new version is created, you can switch from one to the other (select the version you want, then click Switch to version)
Edit a record
Edit a single record (ASFIS), e.g., EN name
- In left panel, hierarchy, browse/search for the concept you want to edit and select it (click on it)
- In the right panel, go to block Lexicalizations.
- in subsection skos:prefLabel, chose Edit
- Edit the value, then click the green check to save your work
Edit a single record (ASFIS), e.g., scientific name
Just like editing a prefLabel, but in section Other properties
Add a record
Add a single ASFIS record
- Select the scheme ASFIS
- Go to menu Data, tab Concept
- In the left panel, hierarchy, choose the parent for the concept you want to add
- Click on icon Create narrower concept (right below tab name)
- A window Create narrower concept will prompt
- Add label (= skos:prefLabel)
- add the last part of the URI. The convention adopted to date is that, for species, the last part of the URI is their taxon code.
Note: that there can be only one prefLabel per language → if the one you add is already present, you get an error
Add a new area item (e.g., new subareas for area 31)
- Go to menu Data, tab Concept
- In left panel, select Area 31
- Clik icon Create narrower concept
Remove a single ASFIS record
- Go to menu Data, tab Concept
- In the left panel, browse/search for the concept you want to delete
- Click icon “Delete concept”
- note: the concept to delete should not have children, otherwise the operation is denied
Deprecate a single ASFIS record
- Go to menu Data, tab Concept
- In the left panel, browse/search for the concept you want to delete
1.Select the concept to deprecate
2.Next to the cogweheel, set as deprecated
1.A line “owl:deprecated” appears in box “Other properties”
View items
a specific subset of a code list
Interface customization
- Tab Concept, cogwheel, chose how to visualize the concept tree
- Hierarchy based or Search based
