This paper will combine ontology and rule based qualitative reason with real time calculation, designing a combined traffic model of national scope which contains highway, railroad, water carriage, scheduled flight etc. That method follows the sense of people to space, establishes ontologies and rules knowledge base, using concepts, instances, relations and rules of traffic field as the basic knowledge for qualitative reason to discover implicit semantic information and eliminate unnecessary ambiguities. The knowledge from the ontologies and rules provides abundant information for query which can lighten the burden of computation, in the mean time, real-time calculation guarantees the accuracy of the data, has raised accuracy and efficiency of the query, which has strengthened the ease of query service and improved web users' experience.
