Abstract
The problem of semantic geointeroperability consists in supporting
coordinated interaction of experts for solving tasks demanding georesources
shared use, under condition of adequate understanding of semantics of the
georesources. Support of semantic geointeroperability assumes that development
of tools of coordinated understanding of geodata should be carried out on the basis
of the comparative analysis of existing metaschemes of bases of geodata in view
of multifactor interactions of users and semantics incorporated in space ontology
and/or geothesauruses and qualifiers. The key task of semantic geointeroperabil-
ity is creation of a uniform conceptual model of representation and coordinated
understanding of geodata on the basis of integration of the space-distributed
information. The paper is devoted to discussion of the concept of semantic
interoperability, aspects of implementation of semantic geointeroperability of the
geographical information, and standards of semantic geointeroperability.
