Ontology is one of the key components in semantic webs. It contains the core knowledge for an effective search. However, building ontology requires the carefully-collected knowledge which is very domain-sensitive. In this work, we present the practice of ontology construction for a case study of health tourism in Thailand. The whole process follows the METHONTOLOGY approach, which consists of phases: information gathering, corpus study, ontology engineering, evaluation, publishing, and the application construction. Different sources of data such as structure web documents like HTML and other documents are acquired in the information gathering process. The tourism corpora from various tourism texts and standards are explored. The ontology is evaluated in two aspects: automatic reasoning using Pellet, and RacerPro, and the questionnaires, used to evaluate by experts of the domains: tourism domain experts and ontology experts. The ontology usability is demonstrated via the semantic web application and via example axioms. The developed ontology is actually the first health tourism ontology in Thailand with the published application.

“…The SW provides a common framework to: (a) represent data on the Web or as a database that is globally linked, in a manner understandable by machines, to the content of documents on the Web; and (b) allow data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and enterprise boundaries [10,12]. If a computer understands the semantics of a document, it doesn't just interpret the series of characters that make up that document: it understands the document's meaning.…”

Semantic Web and Web Services are emerging Webbased technologies, each having its niche contribution within the context of developing Web-based information systems and applications. Their combination, called Semantic Web Services (SWS), provides several potential opportunities and challenges to all individual stakeholders of e-business. This study aims to bring awareness and discussion of important issues related to the impact SWS would likely have on the design, development, and utilization of e-business systems. Additionally, the research sheds some light for IS researchers and practitioners by identifying several research areas for further advancement of SWS technology applications within ebusiness.

Travel and tourism are commonly known as information intensive domains where in online information places a crucial role for the whole lifecycle of the journey. The growth in the use of Internet has transferred the Web users to use the Internet to gather travel related information. Also, the recent development, the semantic Web [1] aims to extend the current Web standards and technology so that the semantics of the Web content are machine processable. Semantically, annotated Websites can not only be understood by the human readers, but also by machines. The backbone of semantic Web is formed by ontology. Ontologies can assist organizational, browsing, parametric search and in more general, more intelligent access to an online information and service. This research is intended to create a new platform on tourism ontology for Tamilnadu, India. It also aims to integrate tourism information from various Websites and effectively retrieve the right information of user needs using semantic Web services.
