Components

APPN aims to link data from all node activities as an interconnected FAIR data graph that as far as possible associates stable concepts and entities with stable IRIs and other persistent identifiers. The following components contribute to this graph:

1. APPN class definitions: schema including references for use of other domain ontologies
2. Domain ontologies: particularly MIAPPE/PPEO, PROV-O, SOSA, QUDT, Plant Trait Ontology, Plant Ontology, other crop ontologies
3. Resolvable PIDs: primarily DOIs, ORCIDs, RORs and RAiDs
4. Vocabularies of class instances: published to RVA with stable IRIs
5. RO-Crate JSON-LD metadata for datasets and their context

The first two components define the class model supported for APPN data. The next two (along with instances from the Plant Trait Ontology) define the sets of known reusable instances for each class in this model. The last uses this populated framework to contextualise, document and represent all the data and metadata associated with each study.
