Data-Mapped Profile (RDF Generation)

A YAMAML document with data mappings that generates RDF from a CSV file.

This example illustrates the defaults.mapping shortcut for sharing a data source across all statements, the id.mapping.path pattern for deriving record identifiers from a column, and the use of prepend and separator transformations on individual statement mappings.
