IAO Textual Entity

A textual entity (IAO_0000300) must always be about something via iao:is_about.

About This Example

This example uses the Information Artifact Ontology (IAO) to model a publication that references a dataset. The SHACL constraint ensures every textual entity has at least one is_about relation.
