            The Thing Model (TM) ontology is an RDF axiomatization of the TM concepts,
            one of the building blocks of the Web of Things (WoT). Besides providing an alternative
            to the standard JSON representation format for TM documents, the TM ontology can also
            be used to process contextual information on Things and for alignments with other
            WoT-related ontologies.

        <h2>Introduction</h2>

        <p>
            The TM ontology is an idiomatic RDF axiomatization of the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/wot-thing-description11/#thing-model">TM concepts</a> 
            , which can be used as a template for instantiating Thing Descriptions (TD)s. The TM ontology imports
            the <a href="https://www.w3.org/2019/wot/td">TD</a> ontology.
        </p>

        <p>
          Please note that the Turtle version of the ontology can be always obtained by doing content negotiation as explained in
          <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/2023/REC-wot-thing-description11-20231205/#json-ld-ctx-usage">Appendix D of the Thing
            Description Recommendation</a>.
          You can include <code>Accept: text/turtle</code> in the request to obtain the Turtle version of this ontology.
