Nowadays, an increasing percentage of data is becoming available in eXtensible Markup Language (XML). Even small discrepancies in the way XML data is defined could cause misunderstanding problems. Consequently, being able to explicitly model the data semantics promises to move information integration technology to a new level of flexibility and automation. The main tools for data semantics specification are based on ontology definition from artificial intelligence techniques. Although these tools provide the functionalities that are necessary and enough for defining a well-conformed ontology, they have not been incorporated into the information system development as expected since these tools assume a certain amount of background knowledge that a lot of people working in ontology lack. This paper presents a tool that make the task of information semantics modeling friendly for people who has not background knowledge in artificial intelligence techniques.
