Extending the Semantic Nets

After adding a collection of attribute/value pairs to the semantic nets describing the mapObjects in a map, a user might EITHER

  1. process a different field in the shapefile to define more detail about the mapObjects, going through all the different procedures again (word list generation and editing , ontology expansion, semantic net extension, etc), OR,

  2. if the mapObjects are sufficiently described, go on to the Query Manager and begin data analysis by formulation of queries.

A user may return to editing the semantic nets at any time.  However, any defined queries would need to be re-run once the semantic nets are modified.
