Research direction

Start by reading odml/resources/odml-ontology.ttl and identify the example Section subclasses such as Cell and Hardware. Move those subclass definitions into a separate odml-subclass-ontology.owl file and add the import in odml-ontology.ttl; done means the ontology retains the same subclassing content through the import.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently odml/resources/odml-ontology.ttl contains the basic ontology for mapping odML entities to RDF classes. It also includes some example Section subclasses e.g. Cell or Hardware as proof of concept.

If we want to expand on the subclassing concept and add more terms on a regular basis it would probably be good to move the subclasses from odml-ontology.ttl to its own file e.g. odml-subclass-ontology.owl and import this file in odml-ontology.ttl.
