1 · Object and Data Properties
rdfs:domain on this class or ancestor
| Property | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| atLocation | Location | The Location of any resource. |
| endedAtTime | dateTime | The time at which an activity ended. See also prov:startedAtTime. |
| generated | Entity | |
| invalidated | Entity | |
| qualifiedAssociation | Association | If this Activity prov:wasAssociatedWith Agent :ag, then it can qualify the Association using prov:qualifiedAssociation [ a prov:Association; prov:agent :ag; :foo :bar ]. |
| qualifiedCommunication | Communication | If this Activity prov:wasInformedBy Activity :a, then it can qualify how it was influenced using prov:qualifiedCommunication [ a prov:Communication; prov:activity :a; :foo :bar ]. |
| qualifiedEnd | End | If this Activity prov:wasEndedBy Entity :e1, then it can qualify how it was ended using prov:qualifiedEnd [ a prov:End; prov:entity :e1; :foo :bar ]. |
| qualifiedInfluence | Influence | Because prov:qualifiedInfluence is a broad relation, the more specific relations (qualifiedCommunication, qualifiedDelegation, qualifiedEnd, etc.) should be used when applicable. |
| qualifiedStart | Start | If this Activity prov:wasStartedBy Entity :e1, then it can qualify how it was started using prov:qualifiedStart [ a prov:Start; prov:entity :e1; :foo :bar ]. |
| qualifiedUsage | Usage | If this Activity prov:used Entity :e, then it can qualify how it used it using prov:qualifiedUsage [ a prov:Usage; prov:entity :e; :foo :bar ]. |
| startedAtTime | dateTime | The time at which an activity started. See also prov:endedAtTime. |
| used | Entity | A prov:Entity that was used by this prov:Activity. For example, :baking prov:used :spoon, :egg, :oven . |
| wasAssociatedWith | Agent | An prov:Agent that had some (unspecified) responsibility for the occurrence of this prov:Activity. |
| wasEndedBy | Entity | End is when an activity is deemed to have ended. An end may refer to an entity, known as trigger, that terminated the activity. |
| wasInfluencedBy | Activity Agent Entity | Because prov:wasInfluencedBy is a broad relation, its more specific subproperties (e.g. prov:wasInformedBy, prov:actedOnBehalfOf, prov:wasEndedBy, etc.) should be used when applicable. |
| wasInformedBy | Activity | An activity a2 is dependent on or informed by another activity a1, by way of some unspecified entity that is generated by a1 and used by a2. |
| wasStartedBy | Entity | Start is when an activity is deemed to have started. A start may refer to an entity, known as trigger, that initiated the activity. |
