To achieve semantic interoperability, geo-spatial applications need to be equipped with tools able to understand user terminology that is typically dif-ferent from the one enforced by standards. In this paper we summarize our experience in providing a semantic extension to the geo-catalogue of the Au-tonomous Province of Trento (PAT) in Italy. The semantic extension is based on the adoption of the S-Match semantic matching tool and on the use of a specifically designed faceted ontology codifying domain specific knowledge. We also briefly report our experience in the integration of the ontology with the geo-spatial ontology GeoWordNet.

Abstract
To achieve semantic interoperability, geo-spatial applications need to be equipped with tools able to understand user terminology that is typically dif-ferent from the one enforced by standards. In this paper we summarize our experience in providing a semantic extension to the geo-catalogue of the Au-tonomous Province of Trento (PAT) in Italy. The semantic extension is based on the adoption of the S-Match semantic matching tool and on the use of a specifically designed faceted ontology codifying domain specific knowledge. We also briefly report our experience in the integration of the ontology with the geo-spatial ontology GeoWordNet.File in questo prodotto:
