A Method for Building Geographical Conditions Ontology Attribute Library: Taking Tianjin as an Example

Article Preview

Abstract:

As a new tool and new approach in the scientific development of surveying and mapping service, the mission of geographic national condition monitoring is to provide objective, fair and accurate thematic information for integrated decision-making at all levels of government. How to realize the semantic sharing of geographic national condition thematic information is the key problem for geographic national condition to provide cross-industry, cross-sector and interdisciplinary information service. Based on ontology theory, this paper proposed a method for building geographic national conditions ontology attribute database. Tianjin geographic national conditions monitoring content and its service users are selected as knowledge domain and conceptualization and formal representation is made for geographic national information, protégé software is used to build ontology attribute library.
