The oneM2M Base Ontology 
==============

This is a private repository for developing the oneM2M base ontology

The default branch will contain individual versions of the .owl files of the base ontology 
(e.g. "base_ontology-v_3_5_0.owl"), matching the versions of TS-0012, which can be found at
http://onem2m.org/technical/latest-drafts

The repository will also contain a file "base_ontology.owl" which contains the latest version of the base ontology.

For use in an ontology browser, e.g. Protege, one needs to use the link to the RAW version of the file, e.g. 
https://git.onem2m.org/MAS/BaseOntology/raw/master/base_ontology.owl
General
-----
 The classes and properties of the oneM2M base ontology are described in TS-0012.
 
 Using this GitLab repository it is possible to create branches which contain your own ontology to be used in oneM2M.
 Such an ontology needs to reference your own ontology as well as the base ontology - prefereably the latest version - via  "include" statements.
 
 It also needs to contain appropriate subClass / subProperty relationship statements that make e.g. class yourDevice a sub-class of class Device of the base ontology.
