Abstract

In this paper, the development of an ontology that represents the knowledge of belief culture in the Greater Mekong subregion(GMS) is presented. The ontology was carefully designed to specify the concepts relevant to intangible and tangible cultural heritage and the relations among them. The knowledge domain in this work focuses on the cultural context and implicit attributes of the GMS as an initial case study. To further illustrate the potential of the developed ontology, a semantic search application was implemented and then evaluated by experts. On the evaluation processes, several complicated queries were designed in order to fully utilize the relations among ontological classes, and the results were returned accurately. The evaluation proved that the ontology was welldefined in aspects of its hierarchical structure and relations from intermediate concept layers.
