Krzysztof, Can you expand what you mean by this in a meeting please-- I have placeholder in the documentent for it, but it needs expansion. Feel free to edit the document and so to do it in place.

Hi Kerry,

Sure. One of the reasons to include DUL in the original SSN was the need for a stronger semantic anchoring of the classes and relationships defined in SSN. One problem we faced was that terms such as Sensor, System, Observation, were under-specific to a degree where a major part of the intended interpretation of these classes was encoded in terms of their labels. DUL gave us additional axioms to further refine what was meant by 'Sensor', 'Observation' and so forth. Removing DUL, will leave us with the same problem as we had before, and, thus, I proposed to make use of the power of OWL2 to add a stronger axiomatic foundation to SSN (classes).

Best,
Krzysztof
