Abstract
|
Similar to the original SSO, SOSA acts as a central building block for the SSN but puts more emphasis on light-weight use and the ability to be used standalone.

|
Audience
|
SOSA is added as a core, and is also useful as a standalone ontology targeting Web developers, citizen science, lightweight Linked Data publishing, resource-constraint IoT devices, data intensive applications (with the possibility of using lightweight reasoning), and so on.

Description*
|
This ontology is based on the SSN Ontology by the W3C Semantic Sensor Networks Incubator Group (SSN-XG), together with considerations from the W3C/OGC Spatial Data on the Web Working Group.

Notes
|
The initial W3C Semantic Sensor Network Incubator Group ontology (SSN) was built around an ontology design pattern called the Stimulus Sensor Observation (SSO) pattern [SSO-Pattern]. The SSO was developed as a minimal and common ground for heavy-weight ontologies for the use on the Semantic Sensor Web as well as to explicitly address the need for light-weight semantics requested by the Linked Data community. The SSO was also aligned to the Dolce-Ultralite upper ontology (DUL).
