RDF Mapping to Taxonomy Terms?

Hi All,

I am administering a D7 site with the RDFx module and UI extension deployed. I see with my vocabularies I can define rdf mapping for the entire vocabulary, that exist on every term, but I don't see a way to define a mapping for a single unique taxonomy term.

Is there a way to support this behavior?

I'm not sure if you want to

I'm not sure if you want to use different mapping properties for different taxonomy terms, or if you want to map different terms to different objects (e.g., URIs of terms from an external terminology), using the same mapping property.

If the latter applies, you could take a look at http://drupal.org/project/web_taxonomy. The module is aimed to integrate web accessible taxonomies through a comfortable autosuggest interface and saves local taxonomy terms as proxies for the remote terms. The links to the remote terms are saved in an additional field, and through RDF UI you can assign a fitting mapping relation (such as skos:exactMatch) to all these links. - Maybe this could be helpful as a starting point.

Cheers, Joachim

Hi, this is a helpful

Hi, this is a helpful starting point but let me give a little more clarity on my use case. I think i'm looking for "want to use different mapping properties for different taxonomy terms'

I'm asking users to upload 'resources' and give them a set of categories which is a controlled vocabulary. So when they create a node they might tag it as a 'software' which needs it's own uris or 'powerpoint' which needs its own uri. So I have the requirement I need to use a select list and display the items as a controlled vocabulary and, depending on the term selected, different rdf data will be associated with a new contribution.
