Abstract

In this paper we will define an ontology about the semantic content of ocean satellite images in which we are able to represent types of ocean structures, spatial and morphological concepts, and knowledge about measures of temperature, chrolophyll concentration, among others. Such ontology will provide the basis of a classification system based on the low-level features of images. We have tested our approach using the Protegé semantic web tool.
