Issues Descriptions

The documents ontology is missing the notion of a document part

  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    SBRM and other OMG processes need to be able to connect documents to the components therein. RTF members have requested that we add these terms to the documents ontology to facilitate mapping to other document ontologies as well as for extension purposes.

Need to augment the locations ontology to cover sites and facilities, or create a new ontology for these concepts

  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    Several OMG members have requested a general ontology that includes sites and facilities, which are currently modeled in FIBO, primarily for lending and asset management purposes, but they are also needed for retail and manufacturing. The relationship between a site and a facility is many to many, and modeling them for manufacturing as well as retail, energy, military, and other domain areas can be tricky. Having the general pattern that can be extended by any domain area would be very useful for extension purposes.

The quantities and units ontology does not allow representation of unitless quantity values

  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    There is a gap in the quantities and units ontology whereby we cannot represent counts of things, which do not necessarily have units, nor can we properly represent ratio values, which may involve scalar quantity values that do not have units. There is also a challenge in representing ratio values more generally, since there is no numeric value representing the ratio on the class.

Clean up a few issues with the Locations ontology

  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    1. County and FederalCapitalArea should be subclasses of CountrySubdivision

    2. FederalState should have synonyms rather than this in the note "variously referred to as a state, province or canton".

    3. Several annotations on geographic region identifier and a few other concepts need clarification

The definition of aspect needs refinement

  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    Rather than classifying 'something' an aspect should classify a set or group of things - at a higher metalevel than 'quality' in BFO, for example. This impacts the Classifiers ontology, in which Aspect is defined.
