- Category: class
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/quality - Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)
An ISO 19157 data-quality dimension or lineage category — an open value vocabulary of individuals (never subclasses). New dimensions (e.g. a domain-specific 'semantic consistency' or 'usability') are added by minting fresh individuals, not by creating new classes (Principle 9).
Structure
Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:QualityDimension as a specialized kind of gufo:QualityValue. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use as the value vocabulary for the data-quality axis — the seeded ISO 19157 dimensions plus lineage, referenced from a
QualityAssessmentviagmeow:qualityDimension.
Avoid when
- Avoid creating per-dimension subclasses (dimensions are individuals) and avoid using it for the assessment itself (that is
gmeow:QualityAssessment).
How to use
- Reference the seeded dimension individuals from an assessment; extend the axis for a domain-specific quality concern by minting a fresh
gmeow:QualityDimensionindividual rather than a subclass.
