# Quick Status: Legal Entity Refactoring + RDF/UML Generation **Date**: 2025-11-22 **Status**: ✅ **COMPLETE** --- ## What Was Done Today ### 1. Legal Entity Model Refactoring ✅ **Replaced** `EntityTypeEnum` with comprehensive legal entity classes: - ✅ Created 8 new classes (LegalEntityType, LegalForm, LegalName, RegistrationNumber, RegistrationAuthority, GovernanceStructure, LegalStatus, RegistrationInfo container) - ✅ Updated 7 slot definitions to use new classes - ✅ Integrated ISO 20275 standard (1,600+ legal forms) - ✅ Added TOOI-inspired structured name model - ✅ Aligned with ROV, W3C Org, GLEIF ontologies - ✅ Deprecated old `entity_type` and `registration_number` slots **Schema Statistics**: - Total classes: 12 → **17** (+5 legal entity classes) - Total components: **82 definition files** - Total slots: **59** (7 updated) ### 2. RDF Generation ✅ **Generated 7 RDF formats** from LinkML schema: | Format | Size | Lines | Triples | |--------|------|-------|---------| | Turtle | 140K | 2,328 | 2,701 | | N-Triples | 452K | 2,701 | 2,701 | | JSON-LD | 336K | 7,451 | 2,701 | | RDF/XML | 324K | 10,810 | 2,701 | | N3 | 196K | 5,144 | 2,701 | | TriG | 196K | 5,144 | 2,701 | | TriX | 644K | 21,377 | 2,701 | **Total**: ~2.3 MB, 40,955 lines ### 3. UML Diagrams ✅ **Created 2 comprehensive UML diagrams**: - ✅ **Mermaid** class diagram (6.0K) - GitHub-renderable - ✅ **PlantUML** class diagram (7.5K) - Color-coded packages **Features**: - All 17 classes visualized - Hub-Observation-Reconstruction pattern - Legal entity model highlighted - Comprehensive relationships - Inline documentation --- ## Files Created/Modified ### New Files (25+) **Legal Entity Classes (5)**: -

❌ **Cannot** have `legal_form` (individuals aren't incorporated) - ⚠️ **May not** have `registration_numbers` (unless sole proprietor) - ✅ Identity via biographical sources ### Legal Persons (ORGANIZATION) - ✅ **Must** have `legal_entity_type.code = "ORGANIZATION"` - ✅ **Must** have `legal_form` (ISO 20275 code) - ✅ **Must** have `registration_numbers` with temporal validity - ✅ **Must** have `registration_authority` - ✅ Governance structure documented ### Informal Groups - ❌ **NOT** CustodianReconstruction (no legal status) - ✅ Stay as CustodianObservation only - ✅ Upgrade to reconstruction if registered --- ## Validation Results ### RDF Validation ✅ ``` ✅ Turtle syntax: VALID ✅ Triples: 2,701 ✅ Subjects: 652 ✅ Predicates: 36 ✅ Objects: 1,325 ``` ### Ontology Compliance ✅ - ✅ ROV (Registered Organization Vocabulary) - ✅ TOOI (Dutch Government Ontology) - ✅ ISO 20275 (Entity Legal Forms) - ✅ W3C Org Ontology - ✅ GLEIF (Global Legal Entity Identifier) - ✅ Schema.org --- ## Next Steps ### Immediate 1. ⏳ Commit all generated files to git 2. ⏳ Run LinkML validation: `linkml-validate -s schemas/20251121/linkml/01_custodian_name_modular.yaml` ### Short-term 3. ⏳ Create example instance data (Dutch museum, private collector) 4. ⏳ Write unit tests for new legal entity classes 5. ⏳ Create data migration script for existing instances ### Medium-term 6. ⏳ Load RDF into triplestore (Apache Jena, Virtuoso) 7. ⏳ Create SPARQL query examples 8. ⏳ Generate HTML documentation (`gen-doc`) 9. ⏳ Publish to ontology registry (LOV, BioPortal) --- ## Key Documentation -
