The work presented in this paper demonstrates an evaluation procedure for a real-life application ontology, coming from the avionics domain. The focus of the evaluation has specifically been on three ontology quality features, namely usability, correctness and applicability. In the paper, the properties of the three features are explained in the context of the application domain, the methods and tools used for the evaluation of the features are presented, and the evaluation results are presented and discussed. The results indicate that the three quality features are significant in the evaluation of our application ontology, that the proposed methods and tools allow for the evaluation of the three quality features and that the inherent quality of the application ontology can be confirmed.
