[Iotsi] New IoT effort at schema.org

[Ted Hardie <[e-mail]>]

Howdy,

As you may remember from the IOTSI workshop, there was some discussion
about setting up a "Rosetta stone" site for schemas and ontologies related
to IoT devices and systems.  Some of the folks in that conversation have
had some further discussion about the prospect with the folks at schema.org,
which does a similar thing for web-based schemas.   That resulted in
schema.org folks volunteering to set up an "iot.schema.org", which is meant
to help both "things" and services interoperate on a semantic level, as a
common look-up site for types, properties, and enumerated values for
structured data found in IoT.




*There is a short paper outlining the initial work here
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mE2hN83lXzqXA-RQYMURJxIlEktcZkFB252BQCCnkKk/edit?pref=2&pli=1#>
and a mailing list <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/sdo-iot-sync>. *
*If you are interested, *please do join the mailing list.  (Since some of
the folks were not part of IOTSI or other IAB efforts, it might be good
when you do to introduce yourself)
*.*
regards,

Ted
