Review of Sensor and Observations Ontologies - Semantic Sensor Network Incubator Group. Overview of this activity Prior to the start of the ontology engineering work on the SSN ontology, the group extensively reviewed ontologies and data models describing sensors and their capabilities as well as observations, using these attributes.
This part of the report presents the 17 sensor-centric and observation-centric ontologies which were analysed in detail. This report also provides a record of other ontologies which were identified but which did not match the objectives stated in the SSN XG charter. DISCLAIMER: 8 out of the 17 ontologies which are reviewed here were developed by organisations participating in the SSN XG and may have been reviewed by the participants of the XG who were involved in their development. This is because the goal of this review phase was to better understand the similarities and differences between all the existing ontologies to refine the scope of the SSN XG ontology.
