The following evaluation results have been generated by the RESTFul web service provided by OOPS! (OntOlogy Pitfall Scanner!).
It is obvious that not all the pitfalls are equally important; their impact in the ontology will depend on multiple factors. For this reason, each pitfall has an importance level attached indicating how important it is. We have identified three levels:
Ontology elements (classes, object properties and datatype properties) are created isolated, with no relation to the rest of the ontology.
This pitfall affects to the following ontology elements:
Object and/or datatype properties without domain or range (or none of them) are included in the ontology.
This pitfall affects to the following ontology elements:
This pitfall appears when any relationship (except for those that are defined as symmetric properties using owl:SymmetricProperty) does not have an inverse relationship (owl:inverseOf) defined within the ontology.
This pitfall affects to the following ontology elements:
An ontology element is used as a class without having been explicitly declared as such using the primitives owl:Class or rdfs:Class. This pitfall is related with the common problems listed in [8].
This pitfall affects to the following ontology elements:
