+# AFarCloud ontology
+The AFarCloud ontology covers several domains 
 
+1.	Farm domain: it includes information related with crops and livestock:
+
+- Crops: information about the main features of crops. Some of the concepts are based on the information model used in the FOODIE project (http://www.foodie-project.eu/).
+
+- Livestock: models information related to cattle.
+2.	Sensors domain: this domain includes information about sensors, actuators and IoT devices used in agriculture. The model extends the Semantic Sensor Network Ontology (SSN) ontology. 
+3.	Vehicles domain: this domain models aerial, ground and underwater vehicles and their degree of autonomy. It extends the ontology from the SWARMs project (http://www.swarms.eu/)
+4.	Mission domain: this domain is responsible for providing a general representation of the mission composition and planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV). It is based on the ontology from the SWARMs project (http://www.swarms.eu/)
