Dealing with Geospatial Information in the Semantic Web

O'Dea, D., Geoghegan, S. and Ekins, C.

    Geospatial information plays a critical role to the military user. Geospatial Web Services promise to make such information more readily available. Searching for the right Geospatial information, however, is a difficult task. The Semantic Web promises to facilitate this process by improving the capability to search for information by better expressing the context and meaning of the search query. Meshing the two approaches to create a Geospatial Semantic Web is an idea that is gaining prominence in both areas of Geospatial Information Science and Semantic Web Services. The Defence Science and Technology Organisation is also working to develop a system to explore and develop the Geospatial Semantic Web as a concept. We report our initial thoughts about the feasibility of such a program.
