Abstract: Growth
in web technology has seen the emergence of the Semantic Web which has been
envisioned to provide solutions to users of web resources, especially in the
area of data and service discovery. Many GIS (Geographic Information Systems)
exist which facilitate sharing of data over the web in distributed
environments. However search and retrieval of data and services is difficult
due to the vocabulary used in different SDI which lead to semantic
heterogeneity problems when only simple keyword-based search is employed [1].
