abstract |
A major problem with encoding an ontology of geographic information in a formal language
is how to cope with the issues of vagueness, ambiguity and multiple, possibly conflicting,
perspectives on the same concepts.We present a means of structuring such an ontology
which allows these issues to be handled in a controlled and principled manner, with
reference to an example ontology of the domain of naive hydrography, and discuss some
of the issues which arise when grounding such a theory in real data -- that is to
say, when relating qualitative geographic description to quantitative geographic data. |
