			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This evening it was time to re-visit the White House and re-factor it into it&#8217;s own OWL Dataset. I thought it would be of interest to use the White House as an example of a resource having multiple types.</p>
<p>Initially I had modeled the White House simply as the Presidential Residence but on further modeling I had to make it also an Office of Government.  Using <a href="http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Notation3.html">N3</a> Format, this is expressed in OWL as follows:</p>
<pre>
usgov:WH
      a       gov:PresidentialResidence , gov:Office ;
      rdfs:label "White House"^^xsd:string ;
      dc:description "The White House is the official residence of the President of the United States, recognized worldwide as a symbol of the prestige of the presidency. Built between 1792 and 1800, the sprawling 132-room mansion has been used as a home by every President since John Adams."^^xsd:string ;
      gc:url  "http://www.whitehouse.gov/"^^xsd:anyURI ;
      gov:commision usgov:WH-CNMR , usgov:WH-CPS ;
      gov:council usgov:WH-CEQ , usgov:WH-CEA ;
      gov:reportsTo usgov:US-Government ;
      gov:suborganization usgov:WH-FBCIO , usgov:WH-ONAP , usgov:WH-CEQ , usgov:WH-DPC ,
                                       usgov:WH-OA , usgov:WH-NSC , usgov:WH-CNMR , usgov:WH-NEC ,
                                       usgov:WH-CEA , usgov:WH-CPS ;
      =       &lt;http://dbpedia.org/resource/White_House&gt;
</pre>
<p>Note:</p>
<ol>
<li>Multiple types are expressed in N3 as a comma separated list of classes;</li>
<li>Sub-organizations of a government body are named using a hyphenated phrase, For example: &#8216;WH-ONAP&#8217;;</li>
<li>Where known, sub-organizations are specialized as &#8216;councils&#8217; and &#8216;commissions&#8217;;</li>
<li>a dbpedia <a href="http://dbpedia.org/resource/White_House">link</a> has been provided with an &#8216;owl:sameAs&#8217; construct expressed in N3 as an &#8220;=&#8221; statement.</li>
