|
|
|
|
| Aspect | TopicType | Topic (This Class) |
|
|
|--------|-----------|-------------------|
|
|
| **Nature** | Classification/category | Specific topic instance |
|
|
| **Examples** | GENEALOGY, CIVIL_REGISTRY | "Civil Registry in Utrecht 1811-1900" |
|
|
| **Properties** | Category metadata | Specific subject term, scope |
|
|
| **Cardinality** | ~20-50 types | Many instances |
|
|
|
|
**USAGE**:
|
|
|
|
Topics are linked to heritage resources (finding aids, collections, etc.)
|
|
via the is_or_was_categorized_as slot:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
finding_aid:
|
|
is_or_was_categorized_as:
|
|
