abstract = "The efficiency of a geographic database is directly related with
the quality and completeness of its contents. In the case of
gazetteers, i.e., place name dictionaries, previous work proposed
ontological extensions based on the storage of geographic shape
and on multiple types of relationships among places. However, in
order to be more useful, gazetteers must contain large volumes of
information on a large variety of themes, all of which must be
geographically represented and related to places. The objective of
this work is to propose techniques to expand a gazetteers content
using relevance criteria, increasing its usefulness to solve
problems such as place name disambiguation. We demonstrate these
techniques using data on Brazilian rivers, which are preprocessed,
and the appropriate relationships are identified and created.",
