Ontology Mapping

Ontology mapping is the process of establishing connections between different structured representations of knowledge, called ontologies, which categorize concepts and their relationships. When organizations or systems use different ontologies, mapping helps them understand how concepts in one align or relate to those in another. This enables data from various sources to be integrated, compared, or shared effectively. Essentially, ontology mapping creates a bridge between different ways of organizing information, ensuring that related concepts are understood consistently across different systems or domains.
