Using Ontologies for resolution of Semantic Heterogeneity in GIS

Recently, problem of semantic conflicts in interoperable information systems or database integration has been under research. In this paper we try to clarify the problem and show how using ontologies can help in detecting and possibly resolving semantic conflicts. We also show how a formalism such as Description Logic can help in this domain.
