Re: Ontology for Emergency Response management

Thanks Paola.
That is what I was worrying that the information exchange framework was
proposed but left to users to extend for specific use-case implementation
and so, I was on look out if anyone attempted to start making ontology
using that. We are working on a NSF funded project on organizational
sensemaking during emergency response (
http://knoesis.org/research/semsoc/projects/socs). Therefore, our interest
lies in the model for coordination aspect between actors of emergency
response phase. I am planning now to build upon the framework you guys
recommended, so I shall get back to you for further questions. :)

I really appreciate your response.
Best,
Hemant
