Introduction

Mapping

A relation between the elements of Feratel XML and theclasses of Schema.org including their properties

Objectives:To annotate the Feratel XML with Schema.org such thatusers of Feratel could benefit from the annotated data

1. Major search engines (Google, Yahoo!, Bing, Yandex) couldinterpret the annotated web pages properly

2. Increasing the visibility of web pages on those searchengines

Discussion

1. Several elements and attributes from Feratel XML can notbe mapped to Schema.org classes or properties

2. A request for Service Providers to Feratel API can not beperformed with one invocation due to the large amount ofdata. A “request workflow” is required and this feature isnot reflected in the current XSLT yet.
