Hi Nicholas,
The Semantic Sensor Web Ontology by our group at Kno.e.sis might be
useful for your purpose. The schema is available at
http://archive.knoesis.org/research/semsci/application_domain/sem_sensor/ont/sensor-observation.owl
The project page is

Thanks

Hello,
I am thinking of doing some weather data logging as RDF. Is there an existing
vocabulary for logging temperature, pressure, wind speed etc ?
I guess that the Event Ontology would be a good starting point.

On a related note, how wrong is it to encode the unit of measurement (eg
Centigrade) as a datatype?
