public class OdmRestrictionClass

extends OdmOntologyClass

A property restriction is a special kind of class description. It describes an anonymous class, namely a class of all individuals that satisfy the restriction. OWL distinguishes two kinds of property restrictions: value constraints and cardinality constraints A value constraint puts constraints on the range of the property when applied to this particular class description. For example, we might want to refer to those individuals whose value of the property adjacentTo should be some Region, and then use this within a class axiom, perhaps even a class axiom for Region itself. Note that this is different from rdfs:range, which is applied to all situations in which the property is used. A cardinality constraint puts constraints on the number of values a property can take, in the context of this particular class description. For example, we might want to say that for a soccer team the hasPlayer property has 11 values. For a basketball team the same property would have only 5 values A restriction class should have exactly one triple linking the restriction to a particular property, using the owl:onProperty property. The restriction class should also have exactly one triple that represents the value constraint c.q. cardinality constraint on the property under consideration, e.g., that the cardinality of the property is exactly 1. Property restrictions can be applied both to datatype properties (properties for which the value is a data literal) and object properties (properties for which the value is an individual). For more information about this distinction, see the section on properties.
