Reasoning about river basins: WaWO+ revisited
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper characterizes part of an interdisciplinary research effort on Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques and tools applied to Environmental Decision-Support Systems (EDSS). WaWO+ the ontology we present here, provides a set of concepts that are queried, advertised and used to support reasoning about and the management of urban water resources in complex scenarios as a River Basin. The goal of this research is to increase efficiency in Data and Knowledge interoperability and data integration among heterogeneous environmental data sources (e.g., software agents) using an explicit, machine understandable ontology to facilitate urban water resources management within a River Basin.

Supporting decision making in river basin systems using a declarative reasoning approach
River management conditions are highly variable and sometimes even unpredictable. Climatic, demographic, industrial and management or planning factors are the main sources of this variability that entails to consider more flexible ways to manage the system. Water pollution is an important problem of concern in river basins, principally for this abovementioned interconnection between all living ...
متن کاملOntoWEDSS: an ontology-underpinned decision-support system for wastewater management
This paper characterizes part of an interdisciplinary research on artificial intelligence techniques applied to environmental decision-support systems. The architecture’s design of OntoWEDSS, a decision support system for wastewater management, is presented. This system augments classic rule-based reasoning and casebased reasoning with a domain ontology. The integration of the newly created WaW...

1.0 INTRODUCTION Floods account for about 15 % of the total death toll related to natural disasters, wherein typically more than 10 million lives are either displaced or lost each year internationally (Hossain, 2006). Rainfall is the primary determinant of floods and its intimate interaction with the landform (i.e., topography, vegetation and channel network) magnified by highly wet antecedent ...
متن کاملCase study Malaysia: Spatial water quality assessment of Juru, Kuantan and Johor River Basins using environmetric techniques
This study investigates spatial water quality assessment of selected river basins in the three different states in Malaysia. Environmetric techniques namely, cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and discriminant analysis (DA), were applied to study the spatial variations of the most significant water quality variables in order to determine the origin of pollution sources ...
