Observation system #131

Closed xgmachina closed 9 years ago

xgmachina commented 9 years ago

As an action to #104 add a new class gcis:ObservationSystem to gcis ontology

xgmachina commented 9 years ago

@justgo129 could you take a review? thanks.

justgo129 commented 9 years ago

Thanks, @xgmachina. I'm not entirely sure I understand the meaning of a "sensing element." Would it be possible to also relate gcis:Instrument somehow? @rewolfe what do you think of the proposed definition?

rewolfe commented 9 years ago

This is a good definition. We need to be able to connect one or more platforms to the ObservationSystem. For instance:

ObservationSystem: NOAA Polar Orbiting Environmental Platforms (/observationsystem/noaa-poes)

Platforms: NOAA-1 (/platform/national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration-1), NOAA-2 (/platform/national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration-2), ..., NOAA-19 (/platform/national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration-19)

@rewolfe do you suggest further action be taken with regard to your comment, or do you feel that this is ready to be merged?

rewolfe commented 9 years ago

Shouldn't we also describe the relationship between platform and observing system? I think we need to define a "hasPlatform" relationship: a ObservingSystem hasPlatform a Platform. Perhaps the inverse is "inObservingSystem".

@rewolfe Perhaps add a general property gcis:hasSensingElement that can connect a observing system not only to platforms, but also to sensors, instruments, and even humans?

rewolfe commented 9 years ago

@xgmachina Yes, gcis:hasSensingElements a good idea.

justgo129 commented 9 years ago

:+1: 1 to adding gcis:hasSensingElements

justgo129 commented 9 years ago

@xgmachina please update the pull request accordingly.

rewolfe commented 9 years ago

+1 !

gcis:hasSensingElement was added as an object property. I will merge the pull request.

Thanks, @xgmachina.
