Abstract

AbstractCurrent Internet search engines do not always return results that users find useful, not least because the markup languages that are typically used only allow keyword searches. Semantic Web is a collection of web technologies that include a number of markup languages, such as RDF, OWL and RDFS, which can be used to model domain ontologies. Domain ontologies provide humans and computers (software agents) with a common understanding of a resource structure and help the creation of more effective web search systems. In this paper, we use Web Ontology Language (OWL) to model a travel domain ontology. Rather than inviting an expert to model the ontology, we create the travel ontology by collecting and analyzing the structural information from a number of travel related websites. The model is used to implement a tourist information portal, SemTour:HK, which is constructed using Semantic Web technologies.
