Summary:
The objective of this thesis is to develop INSPIRE compliant ontologies for
datasets that
belong to the following INSPIRE themes: Greek Administrative Geography, Public
Trans-
port, Public Buildings and Land Use. The first task was to construct four
ontologies that
contain all information needed to represent data related to each of the themes.
The next
step was to study each existing ontology, import it to its INSPIRE equivalent
and proceed
to making changes or expansions wherever it was necessary. Following that
process, the
Geotriples tool was used to convert the shapefile data to RDF form, again using
each
ontology. Finally, in order to demonstrate the results the four datasets have
been stored
in the spatiotemporal RDF store Strabon, and indicative queries where performed
against
each dataset.
