Alignment between SOSA/SSN and SWEET

Hi Folks,

We recently open sourced and transitioned the SWEET Ontology suite [0] from
NASA JPL over to the ESIP Federation [1] and have renewed the interest in
the resource from within ESIP and further afield. I'm currently
spearheading an effort to bring SWEET up-to-date with a wide variety of
advances in ontologies such as the excellent work undertaken by this WG on
SOSA/SSN.
Right now I am working on aligning SWEET with SOSA/SSN and would really
appreciate input/peer review from this WG on alignment accuracy and extent.
So far my work can be seen at [2]. I've been using the Alignment API
software [3] developed by INRIA Rhône-Alpes, France to determine basic
alignments. My choice of alignment software was determined by reviewing a
larger list of ontology matching software [4] and making a judgement about
software usability in order to determine instances of owl:equivalentClass.

As you can see, currently the alignment only covers the Sensor Class. I am
therefore looking to extend the alignment in any way, shape or form which
is accurate and factually correct. If you are able to provide input on
wherever else I may be missing additional alignments, please comment at [2].

Thank you kindly in advance,
Lewis
