Classification of situoids

It will be shown that there are several classes of situoids (and situations, too), all with certain characteristic properties. Some are closely related to processes and a classification of processes, that is still missing in the ontology of GOL, too. Others may be related to issues of completeness, or closure regarding certain rules. With a detailed classification of situoids in GOL more information can be deduced from situoids, representation of knowledge concerning situoids is more detailed and precise. When applying situoids to natural language semantic, a classification can be made by the described entity, or by the kind of uttered statement.

While some distinctions can be made relatively easy, many useful classes of situoids and their relations to other classes will be difficult to find, especially in the field of natural language semantic.
