JATS, the Journal Article Tag Suite, defines a vocabulary of XML elements and attributes used to describe the content and metadata of journal articles. This post describes the mapping of JATS to RDF, so that publishers' XML article metadata encoded using JATS might become part of the web of linked data.
JATS is an application of NISO Z39.96-2012, which defines a set of XML elements and attributes for tagging journal articles and describes three article models.
The content on this site is the supporting documentation for the standard. JATS is a continuation of the NLM Archiving and Interchange DTD work begun in 2002 by NCBI.
