This work describes the study and desing on the creation of ontology.
The study of the problems related with this creation and a particular
case which we development an ontology for spatial terms (in geospatial
context) which will be used for solving semantic problems derived of
Schema Integration on Federated Spatial DataBases. We explain how to
generate this ontology from other existent ontologies like Spatial
Data Transfer Standard (SDTS) and WordNet. We need to do classify
classes's distinguishing features in: parts, attributes and functions
for have more details about classes In this work we extract classes
from SDTS, as well as will be defined in the ontology, also we extract
parcial definition definition of Is-a relations and attributes which
will be defined into our ontology. We complement by means of Part-
Whole relation of WordNet we complement the Is-a relations of SDTS. As
well as part elemets are taken from WordNet, functions are obtained
from explicit verbs used in classes descriptions and this is incrised
by common sense. Finally using Cyc we have created one microtheory to store this new ontology |
