Folksonomy/Property
In order to describe specific features of food products, we use tags consisting of two items, a property and a value. Both the property and the value are free format text fields, but often represent numeric or other structured items. Conventions are agreed on the meaning and use of properties and their values, which are captured on this wiki.
Open Food Facts allows anyone to reuse existing properties or create new properties (see the Folksonomy Engine project).
An overview of all the properties currently in use by the community can be found on the respective project sites:
Syntax
Lowercase English letters should be used without any spaces. If you need them, you can replace them with '_'
Character ':' is used to show subdivision.
For instance, " packaging:has_character ":
- packaging - some information about packaging
- has_character - does this product has character on its packaging (1.)?
