An ontological infrastructure for the automatic control of freight transport
Currently, freight transport carried through a country or through different countries undergoes many delays due to merchandise controls. Merchandise control is only carried out at some border posts or when the authorities demand it. Such control can be an important problem since there are different laws for the same merchandise, according to the legislation of the country and even within the same country. Nowadays there are vocabularies or languages that describe concepts and structures of data related to transport, but the description is just syntactic, not semantic. Therefore the objective to be reached in this part of the research has been to develop a representation scheme of a particul…
Semantic traffic applications based on DatexII
In this work we demonstrate a particular use of ontologies based on the European specifications DATEXII. These specifications are designed and developed as a traffic and travel data exchange mechanism by a European task force to set up and standardise the interface between traffic control and information centres. It is the reference for applications that are developed and implemented in Europe.This language describes concepts and structures of data related to traffic, but the description is just syntactic, not semantic. Therefore the objective to be reached in this part of the research has been to develop a semantic description in order to carry out some applications like syndication and a …
