==Scope==
ISO 19150-2:2015
*Defines rules and guidelines for the development of ontologies to support better the interoperability of geographic information over the Semantic Web;
*Web Ontology Language (OWL) is the language adopted for ontologies;
*Defines the conversion of the UML static view modeling elements used in the ISO geographic information standards into OWL;
*Defines conversion rules for describing application schemas based on the General Feature Model defined in ISO 19109 into OWL.

==Implementation benefits==
This standard ensures completeness, consistency of OWL ontologies, consistency in conversion of UML diagrams into OWL , and cohesion and unity between ISO/TC 211 UML models and ontologies.
