Abstract
Abstract- In this paper we present an ontology for situation awareness. One of our goals is to support the claim that this ontology is a reasonable candidate for representing various scenarios of situation awareness. Towards this aim we provide an explanation of the meaning of this ontology, show its expressiveness and demonstrate its extensibility. We also compare the expressiveness of this ontology with alternative approaches we considered during the design of the ontology. We then show how the ontology can be adapted to handle domain-specific situations by readily extending the core language. The extensions include adding subclasses, sub-properties and additional attributes to the core ontology. We conclude with an example of how the ontology can be used to annotate specific instances of a situation.
