International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO

24、tology comes from philosophy and refers to the study of the nature of the world itself. The information technology and artificial intelligence communities borrowed this term of ontology for the explicit specification of a conceptualization.2Information technology and artificial intelligence consider

25、 that reality may be abstracted differently depending on the context from which “things” are perceived and, as such, recognize that multiple ontologies about the same part of reality may exist. In geographic information, ontology refers to a formal representation of phenomena of a universe of discou

26、rse with an underlying vocabulary including definitions and axioms that make the intended meaning explicit and describe phenomena and their interrelationships.1An ontology can be formalized differently ranging from weak to strong semantics: taxonomy, thesaurus, conceptual model, logical theory.2Onto

27、logy is a fundamental notion for semantic interoperability on the Semantic Web since it defines the meaning of data and describes it in a format that machines and applications can read. As such, an application using data also has access to their inherent semantics through the ontology associated wit

28、h it. Therefore, ontologies can support integration of heterogeneous data captured by different communities by relating them based on their semantic similarity. The W3C has proposed the Web Ontology Language (OWL) family of knowledge representation languages for authoring ontologies characterised by

29、 formal semantics on the Web.4,11Semantics is an important topic in the field of geographic information. The meaning of geographic information is essential for their discovery, sharing, integration, and use. Geographic information standards have recognized this fact in the standards on rules for app

30、lication schema (ISO 19109) and the methodology for feature cataloguing (ISO 19110),7which are both based on the General Feature Model (GFM). Basically, semantics relates phenomena and signs used to represent them (i.e. data) by the way of concepts. Typically, concepts are maintained in repositories

31、 called ontologies.The ISO geographic information standards have chosen the conceptual modelling language UML10,12for the formal representation of abstraction of the reality. Additionally as introduced in ISO/TS 19150-1:2012, there is a need to provide formal representation of abstraction of the rea

32、lity in OWL to support the Semantic Web. Accordingly, this part of ISO 19150 defines rules to convert UML static views of geographic information and application schemas into OWL ontologies in order to benefit and support interoperability of geographic information over the Semantic Web. These rules a

33、re required for: ontology description completeness; consistency in the set of OWL ontologies for geographic information; consistency in conversion of UML diagrams to OWL ontologies; and cohesion and unity between UML models and ontologies.These rules are based on but also extend the OMGs Ontology De
