Description
Successful hydrologic modeling requires an extensive knowledge of hydrologic principles, modeling techniques, impacts of project goals, and field and data investigation in order to determine an appropriate model structure and parameterization. A new kind of ontology, functional ontologies, have been created in order to facilitate the inclusion of concepts and concept relationships along with functional aspects of the concepts. These functional ontologies allow for automated data investigation as well as computerized reasoning about concepts related to hydrologic principles and modeling. This presentation will discuss functional ontologies and how they can be used in automated hydrologic modeling.
