Descriptions on sensor ontologies.
| Sensor ontology | Ontology scale | Description |
| Semantic sensor network ontology (SSN) | 55 entities | It is about sensors, actuators and observations, and related concepts | Sensor, observation, sample, and actuator ontology (SOSA) | 42 entities | It defines those common classes and attributes whose data can be securely exchanged in SSN, its modules, and all SOSA uses | IoT-lite ontology (IoT) | 40 entities | It is about key concepts of IoT | SensorOntology2009 ontology (SN) | 152 entities | It is the initial version of the SSN ontology, which was developed in 2009 | Original semantic sensor network ontology (OSSN) | 107 entities | It is an original version of SSN, which was developed in 2009–2011 |
