Abstract

In this paper we present the Agent Relationship Ontology AgRelOn. The ontology represents detailed knowledge about relations between persons and corporate bodies. Transparency of trustworthiness and provenance as well as other meta knowledge about facts is addressed in a combined n-ary modeling approach. The ontology employs existing standards in order to foster external comprehensibility, referenceability, and reusability. It is already employed in a number of Semantic Web related projects and is publicly available.
