Interoperability & Integrity Interoperability in the world of geographical data and applications is a huge problem The quality and integrity of spatial data is very important to support interoperability A possible way to approach the problem is the introduction of a semantic level: The user level Interoperability in the world of geographical data and applications is a huge problem The quality and integrity of spatial data is very important to support interoperability A possible way to approach the problem is the introduction of a semantic level: The user level

The User Level Is a semantic layer that is able to describe all typical application and user concepts We also provide: translation criteria towards the background system layer: the geometric one Is a semantic layer that is able to describe all typical application and user concepts We also provide: translation criteria towards the background system layer: the geometric one
5
Why a user Level? At the user level, it is possible to express queries or deploy services in a more abstract way, using typical concepts of application and user domain. User level relations (e.g. The river flows into the sea) At the user level, it is possible to express queries or deploy services in a more abstract way, using typical concepts of application and user domain. User level relations (e.g. The river flows into the sea)

Class relations “tributary rivers flow into other rivers” –every tributary river flows in a bigger river, but not that every river has a tributary river “the source is a part of a river”. –every source is a part of a river and every river has a source “tributary rivers flow into other rivers” –every tributary river flows in a bigger river, but not that every river has a tributary river “the source is a part of a river”. –every source is a part of a river and every river has a source

Type of constraints Among instances of the same class and among instances and their parts; Among instances of similar classes (part/whole relations included); Among instances of different classes.

The river graph
31
Conclusions We showed how class relations can be used to define integrity constraints. As a case study, we chose the class river and a set of different types of rivers. For each subset of river class we have defined a set of integrity constraints Finally, we produced an oriented graph that allows combining the previously defined constraints to characterize river subclasses and their intersections.
