#Info A SKOS-based knowledge base with some 26 000 concepts. It is thesaurus-like and contains both "classes" (e.g. comets) and "instances" (e.g. Halley's Comet). Unfortunately these are not separated from each other at all.

Commonly used properties (in the owl file)

• subClassOf
• in the OWL version subClassOf is semantically a mixture of BTG/NTG and BTI/NTI (due to the mix of classes and instances)
• in the SKOS version these are breader/narrower, which then are semantically vaguer
• prefLabel
• altLabel, oldLabel
• associativeRelation
• definedConcept (source from YSA and ALLÄRS thesauri)
• partOf (infrequently used)
