Abstract

Different observations on a domain framework can result in different information sources, which can be complementary or in conflict with each other. In this paper, we propose a framework to deal with this problem, assuming the information space has a lattice structure. When inconsistencies exist in information sources, our approach can allow consensus solutions for integration. Our approach can apply for integrating geographic information, in particular, the spatio-thematic information.
