> Please find this new section here: > https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/NamespaceIssue#Three_options_in_a_nushell Thanks, this is helpful, although this triggers questions as well (the devil is in the details). Let me ask those questions, quoting your wording: Option 1: (Two names and namespaces: SOSA and SSN) "2. SSN has IRI and location <http://www.w3.org/ns/ssn/>. It imports SOSA, adds axioms to sosa: terms, and defines new terms under the namespace ssn:" When adding new axioms to sosa: terms, does it do so in the sosa namespace, i.e. "hijacking" the sosa definition? Or does it clone the term in the ssn namespace with the same intended semantics but just more axioms? "3. Looking up the URI of a term redirects to the ontology where this term is defined, i.e., SOSA if the term is in the sosa: namespace, and SSN if the term is in the SSN namespace." What is happening if both sosa.ttl and ssn.ttl contain "some" statements defining the concept of "sosa:Platform"? Option 2: (One unified name and namespace: SOSA) "Looking up the URI of a term redirects to the ontology where this term is defined, i.e., sosa:CoreVocabulary if the term is defined there, sosa:FullOntology otherwise." What is happening if both sosa/CoreVocabulary.ttl and sosa/FullOntology.ttl contain "some" statements defining the concept of "sosa:Platform"? > Let CORE = "SOSA OR sosa:CoreVocabulary OR ssn:CoreVocabulary" > Let FULL = "SSN OR sosa:FullOntology OR ssn:FullOntology" > indeed: > - xxx:Platform is defined in CORE, and further axiomatized in FULL. > Looking up this URI redirects to CORE Does this mean that any concept defined in CORE (sosa:xxx) will have a clone defined in FULL (ssn:xxx) as soon as one wants to "further" axiomatize this concept? And that ssn:xxx will have some relationships (e.g. rdfs:subClassOf) with sosa:xxx as part of this axiomatization? > The list of terms that will be defined in CORE and FULL is still under > discussion at this stage. OK, I got this.
