SAREF4AGRI: an extension of SAREF for the agriculture and food domain
https://saref.etsi.org/saref4agri/
v1.1.2
2019-04-30
2020-06-05
This ontology extends the SAREF ontology for the Agricultural domain. This work has been developed in the context of the STF 534 (https://portal.etsi.org/STF/STFs/STFHomePages/STF534.aspx), which was established with the goal to create three SAREF extensions, one of them for the Agricultural domain.
SAREF4AGRI is an extension of SAREF for the agriculture and food domain. SAREF4AGRI is specified and published by ETSI in the TS 103 410-6 associated to this ontology file. The list of use cases, standards and requirements that guided the creation of SAREF4AGRI are described in the associated ETSI TR 103 511.

A relationship indentifying the task accomplished by a certain entity (e.g., a device)
has member
A relation to represent the members of an AnimalGroup.
Humidity
Humidiy
A saref:Property related to some measurements that are characterized by a certain value that is measured in a humidity unit
Precipitation
The amount of water falling in the soil by natural process (e.g. rain).
location
The relation between something and the point,
or other geometrical thing in space, where it is. For example, the realtionship between
a radio tower and a Point with a given lat and long.
Or a relationship between a park and its outline as a closed arc of points, or a road and
its location as a arc (a sequence of points).
Clearly in practice there will be limit to the accuracy of any such statement, but one would expect
an accuracy appropriate for the size of the object and uses such as mapping .
is property of
Relation between a property and a feature of interest in which such property appears.
has state
receives
A relation to represent the intake/consumption of certain substances in a Crop.
Irrigation water
The amount of water falling in the soil by irrigation methods.

A collection of cultivated plants that is grown on a large scale commercially, especially a cereal, fruit, or vegetable.
Animal Group
A collection of one or multiple animals.
Watering valve
Watering valve
is command of
A relationship between a command and a function.
Unit of measure
The unit of measure is a standard for measurement of a quantity, such as a Property. For example, Power is a property and Watt is a unit of power that represents a definite predetermined power: when we say 10 Watt, we actually mean 10 times the definite predetermined power called "watt". Our definition is based on the definition of unit of measure in the Ontology of units of Measure (OM). We propose here a list of some units of measure that are relevant for the purpose of SAREF, but this list can be extended, also using some other ontologies rather than the Ontology of units of Measure (OM).

Relation between a measurement and the device that made it.
Building
A building represents a structure that provides shelter for its occupants or contents and stands in one place. The building is also used to provide a basic element within the spatial structure hierarchy for the components of a building project (together with site, storey, and space).

Command
A directive that a device must support to perform a certain function. A command may act upon a state, but does not necessarily act upon a state. For example, the ON command acts upon the ON/OFF state, but the GET command does not act upon any state, it simply gives a directive to retrieve a certain value. We propose here a list of commands that are relevant for the purpose of SAREF, but this list can be extended.

Function
The functionality necessary to accomplish the task for which a Device is designed. A device can be designed to perform more than one function. Functions can be structured in categories (subclasses) that reflect different points of view, for example, considering the specific application area for which a function can be used (e.g., light, temperature, motion, heat, power, etc.), or the capability that a function can support (e.g., receive, reply, notify, etc.), and so forth.
