+1 -----Original Message----- From: public-xg-ssn-request@w3.org [mailto:public-xg-ssn-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of John Graybeal Sent: 17 December 2009 07:33 To: Semantic Sensor Network Incubator Group WG Subject: Re: ISSUE-3 (Modules for sensor, data and process): Ontology modules aligned with use cases [sensor ontology - http://mmisw.org/orr/#http://www.w3.org/2009/SSN-XG/Ontologies/SensorBasis.o wl - 09.12.15 ] The Issue database didn't seem to have a way to add comments, so I'll just make a brief note via the mail. I don't know that this follows. I think device discovery, data discovery, and provenance can easily cut across any and all aspects of a sensor, and therefore can easily exercise all aspects of the ontology. _Structuring_ the ontology to match the use case seems an unusual step from that standpoint. It should be able to validate the use case, but that doesn't require a mirrored structure, does it?
