The research project I1-[OntoSpace] (Bateman/Mossakowski) employs
logical specification languages and tools for constructing and
delivering logically consistent ontological submodules for spatial
objects, spatial relationships, functional spatial roles (e.g.,
landmarks) and motion-in-space. The currently announced position is
concerned with techniques for the large-scale and heterogeneous
structuring of ontology modules, formal foundations for inter-ontology
mappings, and integrated reasoning with formally specified ontologies.
This in particular means proving intended consequences as well as
