Vocabularising dataproduct_type

Hello


I would add that dataproduct_type in EPN-TAP is used perhaps mostly to identify visualization tools to use from the portal. So it is related to SAMP messages somehow. 
The concept can be used to search for data types but it is probably too vague to provide fine results (e.g. spectra is OK, but we really want to look for reflectance or radiance spectra - hence, UCDs are required for this). 
Our “catalogue_item"  probably includes HiPS' “meta".
We don’t have SED (even the name is not usual on our side) but rather (composite) spectra.
« measurements» would fall under EPN-TAP's catalogue I guess - a list of values related to whatever elements, either sources, features, objects (not extracted from images, e.g. asteroids) etc, which may relate to simulations rather than measurements.
At some point we decided to distinguish between many 3D data types - spectral cubes are specific and cannot be handled as volume data, for instance.

>> To keep a global view of dataproduct_type vocabulary current usage, I just mention that in HiPS IVOA REC 1.0, the properties associated to each HiPS has re-used as much as possible the obscore vocabulary, and notably the dataproduct_type keyword vocabulary. Presently the following words are specified in the HiPS document:
>> 	• dataproduct_type = image
>> 	• dataproduct_type = cube
>> 	• dataproduct_type = catalog
>> Another value are used, but not specify in the HiPS document => meta (for meta data information associated to an HiPS => for accessing to the progenitors for instance - cf HiPS progenitors IVOA note).
