The Organization Ontology

https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-org/

The ontology does not provide category structures for organization type, organization purpose or roles. Different domains will have different requirements for classification of such concepts. Instead the ontology provides just the core base concepts needed to allow extensions to add specific sub-class structures or classification schemes as required. Users of the ontology are encouraged to define profiles which strengthen interoperability by specifying particular controlled vocabularies to use for these concepts.

A pictorial illustration of the main classes and relationships in ORG is shown below. All terms are within the ORG namespace (http://www.w3.org/ns/org#, preferred prefix org:) unless an explicit prefix is given. The namespaces for all referenced vocabularies are giving in the section on Namespaces.
