As well, a functional-style syntax is defined for these constructs, with examples and informal descriptions. The meaningful constructs provided by OWL 2 are defined in terms of their structure. The OWL 2 Document Overview describes the overall state of OWL 2, and should be read before other OWL 2 documents. OWL 2 ontologies can be used along with information written in RDF, and OWL 2 ontologies themselves are primarily exchanged as RDF documents. OWL 2 ontologies provide classes, properties, individuals, and data values and are stored as Semantic Web documents. The OWL 2 Web Ontology Language, informally OWL 2, is an ontology language for the Semantic Web with formally defined meaning. W3C liability, trademark and document use rules apply.
