SOSA - a strawman for modularizing the SSN ontology was RE: Detailed comments on SANDA

Folks – I’ve done some work today to turn Jano’s proposal for modularization [1][2] into a more fully worked strawman.
I’ve provisionally called it SOSA (Sensing-Observations-Sampling-Actuation ontology) and loaded RDF files into GitHub.

See documentation here: https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/SOSA_Ontology


Enjoy.

Simon

Subject: [ExternalEmail] Detailed comments on SANDA

I’ve added a few comments on SANDA in WebProtege [1] – initially I posted than as rdfs:comment properties on the class and property definitions, but I’ve now spotted the discussion-topic capability, so have moved my questions there. They related to


1.      The names of the classes currently called Process, ObservedProperty, FeatureOfInterest

2.      The range of the property feature-of-interest

3.      The definition of resultTime

4.      The need for an additional time property.

Several of these suggestions relate to alignment with om-lite.

Maybe directly adding comments in Webprotege and then a mail to the list?

Subject: Proposal for SSN core

Hi,

I have made and uploaded a proposal for the SSN core ontology at:

http://webprotege.stanford.edu/#Edit:projectId=32a4ea9e-4d06-4f92-8188-07fcd96f81a7


It is largely similar to what Krzysztof proposed on the Wiki: https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/SSN_core_modules


I added Actuators and called the core subsequently “Sensor and Actuator Core Ontology” aka “Sanda”. I also added domain and range as annotation properties, please check if you agree, but as discussed there should not be any domain and range restrictions in the core.

Cheers,
Armin
