The present document is a technical specification of SAREF4AUTO, an OWL-DL ontology that extends SAREF <ahref="#[1]">[1]</a> for the Automotive domain.
The present document is a major revision of SAREF4AUTO ontology extension, developed in the context of the STF 653, using updated reference ontology patterns specified in ETSI TS 103 548 <ahref="#[2]">[2]</a> to solve the harmonization needs identified in ETSI TR 103 781 <ahref="#[i.2]">[i.2]</a> , with updated development framework and tools defined in ETSI TS 103 673 <ahref="#[3]">[3]</a> .
ETSI TS 103 410-7 (V1.1.1) <ahref="#[i.1]">[i.1]</a> has been developed in the context of the STF 566, an ETSI specialists task force that was established with the goal to extend SAREF for the domains of Automotive, eHealth/Ageing-well, Wearables and Water (see [https://portal.etsi.org/STF/STFs/STF-HomePages/STF566](https://portal.etsi.org/STF/STFs/STF-HomePages/STF566)).
The intention of SAREF4AUTO is to connect SAREF with existing ontologies (such as W3C SSN, W3C SOSA, GeoSPARQL <ahref="#[i.7]">[i.7]</a> , etc.) and important standardization initiatives and ontologies in the Automotive domain, as mentioned in the associated SAREF4AUTO requirements document ETSI TR 103 508 <ahref="#[i.3]">[i.3]</a> , including:
* ETSI TC ITS for V2V communications <ahref="#[i.8]">[i.8]</a> .
* The SENSORIS data model <ahref="#[i.4]">[i.4]</a> for exchanging data between vehicles and cloud services.
* The DATEX II standard <ahref="#[i.5]">[i.5]</a> for information exchange between traffic management centres, traffic information centres and service providers.
* The DATEX II Parking Publications <ahref="#[i.6]">[i.6]</a> for specifying information about parking sites and individual parking vehicles.
To show the potential of SAREF4AUTO, the present document focuses on adapting the common data dictionary ETSI TS 102 894-2 <ahref="#[i.8]">[i.8]</a> of ETSI TC ITS, and extend it with "platooning", and "Automated Valet Parking (AVP)" adapted from SAREF4AUTO V1.1.
As all the SAREF ontologies, SAREF4AUTO is a dynamic semantic model that is meant to evolve over time. Therefore, the stakeholders in the Automotive domain are invited to use, validate and provide feedback on SAREF4AUTO, collaborating with the SAREF ontology experts to improve and evolve SAREF4AUTO in an iterative and interactive manner, so that changes and additions can be incorporated in future releases of the present document.
The prefixes and namespaces used in SAREF4AUTO and in the present document are listed in [the Namespace Declarations section](#namespacedeclarations).
<p>The documentation for SAREF4AUTO is missing. Please refer to the corresponding technical specification for more information.</p>
<p>An overview of the SAREF4AUTO ontology is provided in <ahref="#Figure_1">Figure 1</a>. For all the entities described in <ahref="#[0]">the technical specification ETSI TS 103 410-7</a>, it is indicated whether they are defined in the SAREF4AUTO extension or elsewhere by the prefix included before their identifier, i.e. if the element is defined in SAREF4AUTO, the prefix is s4auto, while if the element is reused from another ontology, it is indicated by a prefix according to <ahref="#namespacedeclarations">the Namespace Declarations section</a>. Colour codes also help to distinguish the provenance of entities.</p>
<p>Diagrams are to be interpreted using the Chowlk notation <ahref="#[3]">[3]</a>, clause 9.7.2.</p>
<divclass="alert-info">NOTE: <ahref="#Figure_1">Figure 1</a> aims at showing a global overview of the main classes of SAREF4AUTO and their mutual relations. More details on the different parts of <ahref="#Figure_1">Figure 1</a> are provided in clause 5 and clause 6 of <ahref="#[0]">the technical specification ETSI TS 103 410-7</a>. </div>
