CGMES v2.4 and QoCDC SHACL Constraints

Overview

This folder contains SHACL-based validation constraints for CGMES v2.4 and QoCDC 4.1.4 datasets.

---

Content

The directory includes:

• SHACL shapes
• Constraint definitions derived from:
  • CGMES v2.4 profiles
  • QoCDC requirements (partial coverage)
• Supporting structures for validation workflows

These constraints are used to validate:

• Structural conformance (profiles, relationships)
• Datatype consistency
• Mandatory attributes and associations

---

Usage

Prerequisites

To use these constraints, you need:

• A CGMES v2.4 dataset (RDF/XML)
• Datatype mappings
• A SHACL validation engine

Validation Workflow

Typical validation process:

1. Load CGMES dataset
2. Load datatype mapping
3. Load SHACL constraints from this folder
4. Execute validation
