Naming conventions

Versions of external resources used in the context of the SPHN infrastructure are uniquely identified with a code composed of the resource short name and the version number of the resource. This code should be used whenever it is necessary to identify the exact version of the resource being referenced.

The table below highlights the different namespaces (ontology and version IRIs) given for each version of the external terminologies provided in the Terminology Service. In addition, the IRI used for encoding the actual codes are also expressed in the column ‘IRI for codes’. The version of the terminology being used in the SPHN RDF schema 2021.2 is highlighted with an asterisk * symbol next to the terminology name.
