RE: Group endorses SOSA being taken up by schema.org

This would be a great outcome. 
Strong endorsement from here. 

*However* - the group should be aware that there are already elements in schema.org that either overlap or could be confused with SOSA. 

http://schema.org/Action ~ (http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/Actuation |
      http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/Observation | 
     http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/Sampling )
http://schema.org/result ~ http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/hasResult 
http://schema.org/instrument ~ ( http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/madeBySensor | 
     http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/madeBySampler | 
     http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/madeByActuator )
http://schema.org/endTime ~ http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/resultTime 

and probably quite a few opportunities for alignment in http://health-lifesci.0.3-2f.schemaorgae.appspot.com/ such as 
http://health-lifesci.schema.org/procedure ~ http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/usedProcedure 
http://health-lifesci.schema.org/tissueSample ~ http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/hasFeatureOfInterest 
http://health-lifesci.schema.org/SurgicalProcedure ~ http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/Actuation (?)

And http://pending.schemaorgae.appspot.com/variableMeasured is closely related to http://www.w3.org/ns/sosa/observedProperty though the scope (domain) of the former is 'dataset' while the scope of the latter is 'observation'.

Subject: Group endorses SOSA being taken up by schema.org

Dear all,

In today’s plenary call we had a resolution (https://www.w3.org/2017/06/14-sdw-minutes.html), albeit with few people attending, to endorse SOSA being taken up by schema.org. We already had agreement within the SSN subgroup and the editors of the SSN document are more than happy to help facilitate the adoption of (parts of) SOSA in schema.org.

Kind regards,
Armin
