Question 3a Ontology Value -

"Increasingly Important. I have developed a unified RDF Schema,

OWL-DL representation as well as an XML Schema for the Revised

Primary Base Specification of the Human Markup Language. This was

intentionally, aligned with and in part, derived from the International

Council of Museum Conceptual Reference Model (CIDOC CRM).

I am attempting to do the same with the Emergency Management TC's

Emergency Data Exchange Language Reference Information Model (EDXL-RIM)

which is in the planning stages now-03-27-07"

Question 3b Ontology Issues -

"Several specification in the EDXL family of specifications have been

completed in singular approach, i.e. each was done separately, even

though they relate to and have mutual dependencies. These include

the EDXL Distribution Element which is a standard for the routing/handling

of Emergency messages. EDXL Resource Messaging specifies the kinds and

composition of messages pertaining to resources requested, provided and

used in emergency incidents. EDXL Hospital AVailability Exchange provides

a specification for a standard status report of hospital supplies, facilities

and the availability of its resources and assets in any situation, but

especially in emergency incidents.

There are common methods, elements and components in these specifications

and we need a standard that specifies these at a sufficiently abstract level

to be used to unify existing and the construct pre-unified additional

specifications in the EDXL family."

Question 3c Ontology Problems -

"Crisp definitions and context-bound definitions need to be developed

that are all aligned and which belong to an upper or to several

upper ontologies in a way that is consistent.

More importantly is the eventual reduction of reliance on unstructured data,

i.e. free text, which practitioners are quite attached to from lifetime's of

experience in previous, mostly ad hoc communities."

Question 3d Corresponding Solutions -

"Gradually breaking down the resistance to ontologies by adding levels of

semantic unification such as encouraging communities, such as counties

within a state to settle on a set of terms for their emergency operations,

organisational structure, etc and having them published using ISO11179

naming and design rules and the eXtended MetaData Registry format would

help get this started so that any other emergency related suppliers or

jurisdictions can find and use the terminologies of the local communities

when emergency incidents occur. Later, we can collect these locally published

lists of terms, definitions and datamodels into ontologies based on geospatial

and political boundaries and provide them in a semantically structured and

referenced registry or registries on the web and tie the architecture together

as a working Service Oriented Architecture."

Gloss: The <targetArea> is a container element for the geospatial or
