Description
Prefixes for SPDX Profiles in the generate Turtle are currently look like this:
...
@prefix ns1: <https://spdx.org/rdf/3.0.1/terms/Core/> .
@prefix ns2: <https://spdx.org/rdf/3.0.1/terms/Software/> .
@prefix ns3: <https://spdx.org/rdf/3.0.1/terms/Dataset/> .
...
@prefix omg-ann: <https://www.omg.org/spec/Commons/AnnotationVocabulary/> .
@prefix spdx: <https://spdx.org/rdf/3.0.1/terms/> .
...
Which may make it not very convenient when going through the code.
Proposal
We may specify the name of the prefix for each profile or each vocab (only for the vocab that has a lot of entries).
This will make it more convenient to follow the code, and may shorten the code as well.
Suggesting that the gen_rdf_ontology() function in rdf.py can look like this:
g = Graph()
g.bind("spdx", Namespace(URI_BASE))
g.bind("spdx-ai", Namespace(URI_BASE + "AI/"))
g.bind("spdx-core", Namespace(URI_BASE + "Core/"))
g.bind("spdx-hash", Namespace(URI_BASE + "Core/HashAlgorithm/"))
g.bind("spdx-re", Namespace(URI_BASE + "Core/RelationshipType/"))
...
Appropriated clear & concise prefix names can be proposed.
The change shouldn't change the behaviour of the model on the machine side, but it should help the human developer.

Research direction
Open rdf.py and locate gen_rdf_ontology(). Review how the generated Turtle currently assigns prefixes, then define concise names for the SPDX profiles or vocabularies as described in the issue. The work is done when the generated model uses the named prefixes without changing its machine-side behavior.
