The semantic web aims at automating web data processing tasks that nowadays only humans are able to do. To make this vision a reality, the information on web resources should be described in a computer-meaningful way, in a process known as semantic annotation. In this paper, a manual, collaborative semantic annotation framework is described. It is designed to take advantage of the benefits of manual annotation systems (like the possibility of annotating formats difficult to annotate in an automatic manner) addressing at the same time some of their limitations (reduce the burden for non-expert annotators). The framework is inspired by two principles: use Wikipedia as a facade for a formal ontology and integrate the semantic annotation task with common user actions like web search. The tools in the framework have been implemented, and empirical results obtained in experiences carried out with these tools are reported.

On an example of two model areas features of the landscape neighbourhood in the western part of Small Polissya and the cause of its formation are opened. Degree of co-occurrence of those or other natural complexes defined as a share from all inherent in them neighbourhood, accepted for 100 %. The indicators of co-occurrence of those or other natural complexes resulted in tables illustrate, what landscape complexes occur with each other and which aren't combined among themselves, and also show degree of probability of this connection. It is established that within the Ratinska model areas each kind of natural complexes has a considerable quantity of neighbors that has pulled behind itself low indicators of frequency of occurrence with each of them. On the model areas put in Pasmove Pobuzhzhya, a number of natural complexes has small quantity of neighbors and strongly pronounced a dominant. These are landscape complexes of hills and the bottoms of hollows and beams. Having data on the characteristic neighbourhoods, it is possible to find out a specific accessory of a landscape complex without carrying out of field researches. It is shown mainstreams of application of knowledge of the landscape neighbourhoods: research of genesis of landscape complexes, physical-geographical division into districts, landscape indication, thematic data processing of remote sounding of the Earth, geographical forecasting. Key words: Small Polissya, landscape complex, landscape drawing, the landscape neighbourhood, co-occurrence.
