....that look toward GIS users instead of focusing on implementation issues. Ontology use can also help GIS move beyond the map metaphor that sees the geographic world as layers of independent information that can be put over one another. The several inadequacies of the map metaphor are pointed out in [20]. Nunes [13] says that GIS must evolve from the first conceptualizations of geographic space that were mediated by maps. A map is already a representation of the geographic world. Ontology use can help to implement the real GIS that works with a model of the world instead of being just automated ....

....multiple inheritance. Objects are also useful in zooming operations, because when we get closer to a scene instead of seeing enlarged objects we see different kinds of objects. This is achieved through aggregation as in the case of a house that consists of walls, or a block formed by land parcels [22]. 2.2 Interoperability and Objects The concept of object orientation to provide interoperability is used either in the implementation or in the modeling aspect. Soley and Kent [33] stress the ability of representing complex data structures and behavioral specifications as a reason for using ....
