RDF Triples
CWRC-Writer allows users to markup their document with Triples. In this document we provide and overall description of RDF triples.
Relations/Triples
When using RDF, the metadata is encoded as a triples. They use Uniform Resource Identifiers (WRI) to identify the relationships between the links (this is the triple).
Components of a RDF Triple:
- The Objectis the object or value of the RDF annotation.
- The Subject identifies what the object is describing in the annotation.
- The Predicate points to the section of data in the object that the RDF
annotation is giving a value to.
