Abstract:
Scientific research has become interdisciplinary and collaborative, of which sharing and utilizing data in an efficient manner is critical. Data collected for environmental monitoring and modeling, however, often lack semantic information vital for efficient data sharing, thereby causing semantic gaps between the data collection and utilization. The problem is especially acute when data have to be processed without human intervention. To support efficient data sharing, this paper proposes an ontology-based architecture to integrate heterogeneous data. With the help of ontology reasoning, it provides a simpler and more intelligent way for data searching with high-precision and high-recall.
