The xlink:arcrole attribute specifies a contextual role for the element and corresponds to the RDF Primer notion of a property.
This contextual role can differ from the meaning of the resource when taken outside the context of this particular arc. For example, a resource might generically represent a "person," but in the context of a particular arc it might have the role of "mother" and in the context of a different arc it might have the role of "daughter."
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
