Baseline of Observation

  • Status: decision taken
  • Date: 2025-05-03
  • Discussion:

Context

It might be to precise how the property should be interpreted, for example when the property needs to have a baseline.

Decision

We decided to go for Option A: for baselines we prefer to constrain the property and not go for a system solution.

Considered Options

Option A: Constrained property

The property is constrained with a Constraint to describe that the property has a baseline.

baseline

  • Pros:
    • Does not require more complex structures
    • Possibly dedicated subclass of Constraint for baselines
  • Cons
    • Constraints are currently not well-defined
    • Requires a change of the ontology

Option B: Using system for the object of interest

The object of interest is represented as a system of two entities where one is the baseline of the observation.

system

  • Pros:
    • In line with the other asymmetric system pattern
  • Cons
    • Requires additional object properties
