Slot: url

Description: This slot holds a string representation of a URL for an external resource about the node it is present on. Unlike an 'xref' that is primarily represented by a CURIE, this slot is intended to hold a full URL that can be used to directly access a resource. When linking to an external resource that cannot be represented by a unique CURIE, this slot should be used. However, when the intent is to link to the default URI expansion of a CURIE related to the node it is present on, the xref slot should be used instead.
