中文摘要：

“人-地-GIS”关系是地理信息科学及相关研究的基础。传统的人－地-GIS双向联系模型正在向以地学本体为核心的本体中心模型演化。通过主体人与客体人的区分，探讨两者在“人－地－GIS”关系中的地位与作用，分析人－地、地－GIS与人-GIS的相关关系。通过地学本体与本体论的分析，讨论地学本体与科学本体、哲学本体论之间的关系，分析地学本体与类、元数据之间的区别与联系。进而构建以地学本体为核心的“人-地-GIS”关系新模型，该模型整体上分为认知与再现两部分，由核心的本体模型及人的认知层、GIS的模型层与“地学”现象及其关系层构成。以主体人的认知为主线，讨论该模型中各模块的功能与相互关系，指出今后的发展方向。

英文摘要：

The relations of Human-Earth-GIS are the foundation of Geoinformatics and GIS-related researches. The relation model of Human-Earth-GIS is transferring from traditional inter-direction connected to the geo-ontology cored. Based on the specification of subject-human and object-human, the status and functions of human in the relations of Hurnan-Earth-GlS are discussed, and the relations of Human-Earth,Earth-GIS and Human-GiS are analyzed in this paper. By analyzing to the geo-ontology and Ontology, the relations between geo-ontology, scientific ontology and philosophic ontology are discussed, and the differences as well as the relations between geo-ontology, class and metadata are analyzed. It＇s concluded that geo-ontology, class and metadata are neither mutual contained nor mutual conflicted. They are function parallel in data sharing and multiplexing, hut the geo-ontology focus on the semantic of spatial objects, the class focus on the definition of spatial object, and the metadata focus on the description of spatial data sets. Furthermore, a new Human-Earth-GIS relation model based on geoontology is constructed, which is comprised of two parts, cognition part and representation part, and three layers, the layer of Human cognition, the layer of GIS model and the layer of geo-phenomena and its relationship. With the cognition of subject-human being the backbone, the functions and inter-relations of each modules of this geo-ontology cored Human-Earth-GIS model are introduced,and the future direction is pointed out.
