Because of lacking detailed metadata information in the traditional geospatial data, it would lead to being short of part semantic information. Facing the demand of interoperability in growing application of geographic information service, Ontology technology is regarded as one of Effective approach to solve the question of data heterogeneous and interoperability. So in this paper, it would use some new theory and methods of ontology into geographic Information Services, which would solve the difficulties of the geographical spatial data integration. Facing the demand of interoperability in growing application of geographic information service, Ontology techology is widely noticed in the past few years, and is regarded as one of Effective approach to solve the question of data heterogeneous and interoperability. Using the mapping of concepts and attributes, ontology expresses practical geographic space in Semantic level, analyzing the structure and content of geographical spatial database and setting up corresponding domain ontology. At last , it use some logical operations to solve the question of data heterogeneous and interoperability. So in this paper, it would use some new theory and methods of ontology into geographic Information Services, which would solve the difficulties of the geographical spatial data integration.

The way aeronautical information is managed and disseminated must be modernized. Current aeronautical information services (AIS) methods for storing, publishing, disseminating, querying, and updating the volume of data required for the effective management of air traffic control have become obsolete. This does not contribute to preventing airspace congestion, which turns into a limiting factor for economic growth and generates negative effects on the environment. Owing to this, some work plans for improving AIS and air traffic flow focus on data and services interoperability to allow an efficient and coordinated use and exchange of aeronautical information. Geographic information technologies (GIT) and spatial data infrastructures (SDI) are comprehensive technologies upon which any service that integrates geospatial information can rely. The authors are working on the assumption that the foundations and underlying technologies of GIT and SDI can be applied to support aeronautical data and services, considering that aeronautical information contains a large number of geospatial components. This article presents the design, development, and implementation of a Web-based system architecture to evolve and enhance the use and management of aeronautical information in any context, e.g., in aeronautical charts on board, in control towers, and in aeronautical information services. After conducting a study into the use of aeronautical information, it was found that users demand specific requirements regarding reliability, flexibility, customization, integration, standardization, and cost reduction. These issues are not being addressed with existing systems and methods. A system compliant with geographic standards (OGC, ISO) and aeronautical regulations (ICAO, EUROCONTROL) and supported by a scalable and distributed Web architecture is proposed. This proposal would solve the shortcomings identified in the study and provide aeronautical information management (AIM) with new methods and strategies. In order to seek aeronautical data and services interoperability, a comprehensive aeronautical metadata profile has been defined. This proposal facilitates the use, retrieval, updating, querying, and editing of aeronautical information, as well as its exchange between different private and public institutions. The tests and validations have shown that the proposal is achievable.

Data integration of geospatial data in distributed, heterogeneous environment involves the use of semantic ontologies. In this kind of integration system, semantic technologies play an important role in improving performance and effectiveness of spatial queries. This paper focuses on methods of query optimization based on spatial semantics at the top level of semantic layer in central data integration systems. After analyzing the hybrid approach for spatial data integration, two categories of query optimization strategies are proposed based on detailed examination of special characteristics of spatial data. With spatial knowledge explicitly specified in ontologies and associated rules, spatial queries can be optimized intelligently.
