Proposing changing attribute names for mapping precision/equivalence

[aostropolets]

As we (Vocab WG) started implementing community contribution for OHDSI Vocabularies, we thought of aligning the names for meta-data (specifically, mapping precision aka equivalence).

What we've been using so far is SSSOM (more specifically, Semantic Mapping Vocabulary [SEMAPV]) to capture our mapping predicates, link 1 and link 2.

These mappings correspond to the Usagi names as follows:

Equal = exactMatch
Equivalent = closeMatch
Wider = broadMatch
Narrower = narrowMatch
Inexact = relatedMatch

We would like to gather opinions on renaming equivalence attributes in USAGI to the names above so that meta-data attributes for mapping equivalence/precision are interoperable between USAGI and OHDSI Vocabularies.

As usually, many thanks :)

Agree with making the naming consistent across tools, happy to see SKOS adopted in Usagi. Will make a start for implementation.
