G. N. aA framework for semantic annotation of geospatial data for agriculture.h[electronic resource] c2009 aAbstract: The Web is a huge repository of geospatial information. Ef?cient retrieval of this information is a key factor in planning and decision-making in many domains, including agriculture. However, standards for data annotation and exchange enable only syntactic interoperability, while semantic heterogeneity presents challenges. This work describes a framework that tackles interoperability problems via semantic annotations, which are based on multiple ontologies. The framework is being developed within a project to support agricultural planning in Brazil. The paper discusses design and implementation issues using a real case study, provides an overview of annotation mechanisms and identi?es requirements for annotating agricultural data. aAgriculture aSpatial data aAgricultura aAgricultural planning aAnotação semântica aGeospatial data aInteroperabilidade aSemantic annotation1 aMEDEIROS, C.
