Abstract

Our vision of a viable way for transparent and meaningful processing of heterogeneous spatio-temporal data is to put data semantics in the foundation of an integration process. We present and correlate means of integration as components of the mediation level of an interoperable system. For our domain of interest we present MADS domain ontologies and MADS conceptual data model dedicated to modeling of spatio-temporal data. Using as example two MADSschemas we outline an integration methodology based on semantic interschema correspondence assertions and integration goals.

Semantic integration

Semantic integration is the process of interrelating information from diverse sources, for example calendars and to do lists, email archives, presence information (physical, psychological, and social), documents of all sorts, contacts (including social graphs), search results, and advertising and marketing relevance derived from them. In this regard, semantics focuses on the organization of and action upon information by acting as an intermediary between heterogeneous data sources, which may conflict not only by structure but also context or value.

Data integration

Data integration involves combining data residing in different sources and providing users with a unified view of them. This process becomes significant in a variety of situations, which include both commercial (such as when two similar companies need to merge their databases) and scientific (combining research results from different bioinformatics repositories, for example) domains. Data integration appears with increasing frequency as the volume (that is, big data) and the need to share existing data explodes.

Enterprise integration

Enterprise integration is a technical field of enterprise architecture, which is focused on the study of topics such as system interconnection, electronic data interchange, product data exchange and distributed computing environments. It is a concept in enterprise engineering to provide the relevant information and thereby enable communication between people, machines and computers and their efficient co-operation and co-ordination.
