Bioschema compatibility with NMR data

[NRayya]

Currently there are several profiles in Bioschema which prove to be handy to describe studies and datasets. however, going deeper into NMR data, capturing the specific details is completely not possible, unless one abuses available properties for other than their actual purposes.

Starting with the experiment settings, there are no fields for data such as the nucleus, solvent, instrument, temperature and others. But it was agreed to use "variableMeasured" to house them, even that it is actually meant to describe the target of the study (e.g., when confirming a compound existence via NMR, that compound should be the variable measured.)

The results such as the shifts, and the later analyses with the resulting peaks, ranges, assignments.. are all not possible to capture.

We need to discuss what is the best way to accommodate these data with available Bioschema profiles, or further more, if it is possible to get such properties accepted in schema.org? Or one can propose more generic properties that fit all/most analytical techniques (e.g., settings, results, analyses..). The argument would be whether such details affect the find-ability, if the find-ability is the only purpose of using bioschema, and whether we aim at a point where users can search engines for a list of shifts for instance.
