Slot: versionIRI

A version URI is a persistent identifier for a version of an ontology and is used just like its PURL to reliably retrieve a former version of an ontology. Since a PURL usually only points to the latest version of an ontology, each ontology version should additionally state its version URI. The textual version information is usually part of a version URI of an ontology. Here is an example from the Academic Event Ontology: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/aeon/aeon-full.owl http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/aeon/releases/2022-11-25/aeon-full.owl

Here is an example from ListDB Ontology: https://w3id.org/listdb/onto/ https://w3id.org/listdb/onto/0.0.1

Here is an example from the GND Ontology: https://d-nb.info/standards/elementset/gnd# https://d-nb.info/standards/elementset/gnd_20221010
