Abstract: Data and knowledge exchange among users of urban information systems presents many
challenges. This paper discusses issues related to the use of ontologies in the development
of urban geographic information systems and proposes the creation of software
components from diverse ontologies as a way to share knowledge and data. These software
components are derived from ontologies using an object-oriented mapping. The translation
of an ontology into an active information system component leads to... (Update)
