SKOS has been developed by the W3C Semantic Web Deployment Working Group (SWDWG) to support the use of knowledge organization systems (KOS) such as thesauri, classification schemes, subject heading lists and taxonomies within the framework of the Semantic Web. The SharePoint Taxonomy Manager supports SKOS as format for term import and export.
