Intelligent information sharing in digital watershed modeling for planning and management

Abstract

Integrated modeling, planning and management for watershed are complex system problems. Information sharing of digital watershed is a key for integrated modeling, assessment, collaboration, planning and management. This research analyses the methods of information sharing, and presents intelligent information sharing technologies. Framework of watershed integrated modeling, planning and management is given. Ontology category, pattern and process in watershed composition are analyzed. The intelligent agent and service oriented technologies are employed in digital watershed information sharing.Keywords-information sharing; ontology; digital watershed modeling; planning and management; pattern and process.

An integrated spatial DSS design in Hydroinformatics based on ontology and domain modeling

“…However, heterogeneity of data and models in different partners makes it difficult to implement integration. Ontology engineering has provided a method for development of interoperable and integrated information system, such as ontology driven geographic information system [4,5], information sharing and integration framework based on ontology for watershed management [6]. In order to implement an integrated and interoperable DSS in Hydroinformatics, an ontology based framework is given in Fig.…”

“…surface water entities (river basin entity) are extracted from document and literatures [16,6,17]. The line diagrams of the concept lattice for context are shown in Fig.…”
