Specification modularization of the SOSA/SSN terms

Dear all,

Wiki page https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Terms describes the grouping
and ordering of SOSA and SSN terms in the specification.

Having it that way was useful to ensure consistency during the last edits,
however in the spec I think that we should consider grouping terms in such
a way that they could be pictured easily in diagrams.

What would you think of these main sections and order of terms? I tried to
use some kind of "depth first search algorithm" to introduce them
progressively.


1. Features of Interest and Properties

sosa:FeatureOfInterest
ssn:Property
ssn:hasProperty
ssn:isPropertyOf
ssn:forProperty

2. Procedures, their execution, things that make those executions

sosa:Procedure
ssn:hasInput
ssn:Input
ssn:hasOutput
ssn:Output

sosa:Result
sosa:hasResult
sosa:isResultOf
sosa:hasSimpleResult
sosa:resultTime

ssn:implements
ssn:implementedBy
sosa:usedProcedure
sosa:hasFeatureOfInterest
sosa:isFeatureOfInterestOf


3. Observations

sosa:ObservableProperty

ssn:Stimulus
ssn:isProxyFor

sosa:Observation
sosa:observedProperty
ssn:wasOriginatedBy
sosa:phenomenonTime
ssn:qualityOfObservation

sosa:Sensor
sosa:observes
sosa:isObservedBy
ssn:detects
sosa:madeObservation
sosa:madeBySensor

4. Actuation

sosa:ActuatableProperty

sosa:Actuation
sosa:actsOnProperty
sosa:isActedOnBy

sosa:Actuator
sosa:madeActuation
sosa:actuationMadeBy


5. Sampling

sosa:Sample
sosa:hasSample
sosa:isSampleOf

sosa:Sampling
sosa:madeSampling
sosa:madeBySampler

sosa:Sampler
sosa:hasResultingSample
sosa:isSamplingResultOf


6. Systems and their deployment

ssn:System
sosa:Platform
sosa:hosts
sosa:isHostedBy
ssn:Deployment
ssn:deployedSystem
ssn:hasDeployment
ssn:deployedOnPlatform
ssn:inDeployment


7. Conditions

ssn:inCondition
ssn:Condition


8. System Capabilities

ssn:hasSystemCapability
ssn:SystemCapability
ssn:hasSystemProperty
ssn:SystemProperty
ssn:MeasurementRange
ssn:ActuationRange
ssn:Accuracy
ssn:DetectionLimit
ssn:Drift
ssn:Frequency
ssn:Latency
ssn:Precision
ssn:Resolution
ssn:Repeatability
ssn:ResponseTime
ssn:Selectivity
ssn:Sensitivity


9. Operating Ranges

ssn:hasOperatingRange
ssn:OperatingRange
ssn:hasOperatingProperty
ssn:OperatingProperty
ssn:MaintenanceSchedule
ssn:OperatingPowerRange


10. Survival Ranges

ssn:hasSurvivalRange
ssn:SurvivalRange
ssn:hasSurvivalProperty
ssn:SurvivalProperty
ssn:SystemLifetime
ssn:BatteryLifetime

Best,
Maxime
