Statistical PopulationClass

A StatisticalPopulation is a set of instances of a certain given type that satisfy some set of constraints. The property populationType is used to specify the type. Any property that can be used on instances of that type can appear on the statistical population. For example, a StatisticalPopulation representing all Persons with a homeLocation of East Podunk California would be described by applying the appropriate homeLocation and populationType properties to a StatisticalPopulation item that stands for that set of people. The properties numConstraints and constrainingProperty are used to specify which of the populations properties are used to specify the population. Note that the sense of "population" used here is the general sense of a statistical population, and does not imply that the population consists of people. For example, a populationType of Event or NewsArticle could be used. See also Observation, and the data and datasets overview for more details.

constrainingProperty
Integer
Indicates a property used as a constraint to define a StatisticalPopulation with respect to the set of entities corresponding to an indicated type (via populationType).
numConstraints
Integer
Indicates the number of constraints (not counting populationType) defined for a particular StatisticalPopulation. This helps applications understand if they have access to a sufficiently complete description of a StatisticalPopulation.

Properties from Thing
PropertyExpected TypeTMPC Mappingdescription
additionalType
URL
An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. In RDFa syntax, it is better to use the native RDFa syntax - the 'typeof' attribute - for multiple types. Schema.org tools may have only weaker understanding of extra types, in particular those defined externally.
