Ontology Reconciliation

Ontology reconciliation is the process of aligning and integrating different sets of structured information—called ontologies—that categorize and describe concepts within a specific domain. When multiple systems or organizations have their own ways of defining and organizing knowledge, reconciliation ensures these differences are addressed so the information can work together seamlessly. This involves identifying similarities and resolving discrepancies between the ontologies, enabling consistent understanding, data sharing, and improved decision-making across various platforms or groups.
