+# SOSA/SSN - OMS Alignment
+
+Notes about the integration of new OMS v3 concepts into the SOSA/SSN ontology (2023).
+
+
+## Design choices:
+
+ - No change to URIs of existing SOSA/SSN classes and properties.
+ - Only allow minor documentation changes or clarifications that don't fundamentally change the meaning of existing concepts.
+ - Keep most notes and examples from OMS
+ - Some changes to relations to better integrate new OMS classes (range or domain)
+ - Rename associations with more specific names since unique URIs are neeeded in RDF
+
+
+## Summary of the changes:
+
+### New concepts introduced from SSN extensions
+
+#### Classes:
+ - ObservationCollection
+
+#### Associations:
+ - hasOriginalSample
+ - hasSampledFeature
+ - hasUltimateFeatureOfInterest
