Dear all, With respect to item 4 in the SSN agenda tomorrow: SSN defines Measurement properties: a ssn:Sensor can be linked to a ssn:MeasurementCapability through property ssn:hasMeasurementCapability, a ssn:MeasurementCapability can be linked: - to zero or more ssn:Property to which it applies through property ssn:forProperty ; - to zero or more ssn:Condition in which this capability is true using ssn:inCondition ; - to zero or more ssn:MeasurementProperty through property ssn:hasMeasurementProperty . Then the hierarchy of measurement properties is: ssn:MeasurementProperty |- ssn:MeasurementRange |- ssn:Accuracy |- ssn:DetectionLimit |- ssn:Drift |- ssn:Frequency |- ssn:Latency |- ssn:Precision |- ssn:Resolution |- ssn:ResponseTime |- ssn:Selectivity |- ssn:Sensitivity I'm not an expert in sensors and actuators, but I guess some of these properties can also apply to actuators. As a first guess, I would say Accuracy, ActuationLimit, Drift, Frequency, Latency, Precision, Resolution, ResponseTime. Question: What should we do ? This is some of the options I can propose: Option 1: do nothing pro: Option 2: make so that these properties can also be applied for actuators. if so, we need: - to change the documentation for all of the MeasurementProperties so that they can be applied to actuators as well. - to change the name MeasurementProperty? - to change the name MeasurementCapability? - to deprecate oldssn:MeasurementProperty, deprecate ssn:hasMeasurementProperty? - to deprecate oldssn:MeasurementProperty, keep ssn:hasMeasurementProperty, introduce ssn:hasActuationProperty? Option 3: deprecate all this part of the old SSN ontology, and potentially re-introduce them in a future version of the SSN ontology? Wiki page https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/index.php?title=Measurement_and_Operating_properties_for_actuators lists these options and discusses the pros and cons of each. Best, Maxime
