We start introducing a new generalization of the former S4 Observation for observing observable situations as S27 Observation, taking over the scope note of S4. We redefine S4 as S4 Single Observation, so that the current properties of S4 stay valid under S4, but as a special one-proposition case of S27 Observation. We connect S27 Observation directly to CRMinf, I1 Argumentation, and no more to E13 Attribute Assignment

In the 60th joint meeting of the CIDOC CRM and ISO/TC46/SC4/WG9 & 53rd FRBR/LRMoo SIG, the group reviewed the HW by MD & PF on defining a generalization for Observations.
The HW involves:
- introducing a new Observation class (a generalization over observations)
- defining its set of properties --O35 observed entity (was observed by), O36 expressed the observed as (was the expression of)
- introducing a new class (S28 Observable Situation), as the range of O36.
- defining a property for S28: O40 refers to observable entity (is referred to in)
Decisions:
The HW was approved by the SIG.
The definitions of the new classes and properties can be found in the attached document.
