isDefinedBy: is an instance of rdf:Property that is used to indicate a resource defining the subject resource. This property may be used to indicate an RDF vocabulary in which a resource is described.

Notes: The definition of the subject resource. It points to the authoritative information about the resource (which are not necessarily RDF, often html, and in some cases PDF).

Constraints in the context of RDF Schema:

  • rdfs:domain: rdfs:Resource (=the class, to which “rdfs:isDefinedBy” may be applied)
  • rdfs:range: rdfs:Resource (=the class or datatype of the values or objects that are assigned to “rdfs:isDefinedBy”, i.e. the right side in the triple)
