Abstract. Although Semantic Web builds on well-established foundations and we are witnessing its expansion across multiple domains, the community has todate been rather keen on building hybrid ontology-based water quality management systems. Our vision is to build a pure Semantic Web framework for effective management of water quality. In line with this, an SSN-based ontology for water quality management has been developed to support water quality classification based on different regulation authorities such as Water Framework Directive. A couple of case studies from surface waters and drinking waters have been used to illustrate the usability of the proposed ontology.
