Data semantics
The semantics of the data is its real-world meaning.
The type of the data is its structural or mathematical interpretation
At the data level, its an item, a link or an attribute?
At the dataset level, how are these data types combined to create a table, a
tree, a field
At the attribute level, what kind of mathematical operations are
meaningful?
Sometimes, semantics can be inferred from the syntax of the data file or
from the names of variables included, but many often, they must be
explicitly provided along with the dataset in order to be interpreted
properly: the metadata.
Dataset types
A dataset is a collection of information that is subject of analysis.
The four basic dataset types are:
Tables
Networks
Fields
Geometry
In practice, in the real-world we can find complex combinations of
these four basic datasets.
Other ways of grouping items are clusters, sets and lists.
In addition, these datasets could be fully available immediately from a
static file or it might be dynamic data processed gradually in the form
of a stream.
