For more information on the group's activities see: http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/ssn/. The ontology was revised and modularized in 2015-2017 by the W3C/OGC Spatial Data on the Web Working Group, see: https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Semantic_Sensor_Network_Ontology. \n\nIn particular, (a) the scope is extended to include actuation and sampling; (b) the core concepts and properties are factored out into the SOSA ontology. The SSN ontology imports SOSA and adds formal axiomatization consistent with the text definitions in SOSA, and adds classes and properties to accommodate the scope of the original SSN ontology.","download_owl":"https://www.w3.org/ns/ssn/","download_rdf":"https://www.w3.org/ns/ssn/ssn.ttl","deprecated":false,"mappings":{"aberowl":"SSN","agroportal":"SSN","bioportal":"SSN","fairsharing":"FAIRsharing.c0bvcy","lov":"ssn","tib":"ssn","zazuko":"ssn"},"synonyms":[],"keywords":["engineering","ess","imaging","iot","methods","monitoring","nfdi4chem","nfdi4ing","ontology","remote sensing","resource metadata","sensor data","w3c rec","web of things"],"publications":[{"doi":"10.3233/sw-180320","title":"The Modular SSN Ontology: A Joint W3C and OGC Standard Specifying the Semantics of Sensors, Observations, Sampling, and Actuation","year":2019},{"doi":"10.3233/SW-180320"},{"doi":"10.1016/j.websem.2018.06.003","title":"SOSA: A lightweight ontology for sensors, observations, samples, and actuators","year":2018},{"doi":"10.1016/j.websem.2012.05.003","title":"The SSN ontology of the W3C semantic sensor network incubator group","year":2012}],"appears_in":[],"depends_on":[],"namespace_in_lui":false,"contributor":{"name":"Philip Strömert","orcid":"0000-0002-1595-3213","email":"philip.stroemert@tib.eu","github":"StroemPhi"},"reviewer":{"name":"Charles Tapley Hoyt","orcid":"0000-0003-4423-4370","email":"cthoyt@gmail.com","github":"cthoyt"},"preferred_prefix":"ssn","github_request_issue":1272}
