1
WHY SKOS-XL?Use Cases for Taxonomies
based on SKOS Core + SKOS-XL

SKOS is used for taxonomy management in many different industries
▸ SKOS CoreWith SKOS Core, only concepts can be used as resources; labels are only ‘attached’ to concepts and cannot be described in more detail or related to each other
