Semantic Interoperability refers to the ability of different systems, applications, or platforms to not only exchange data but also to interpret and use the data meaningfully. While basic interoperability ensures that data can be shared from one system to another, semantic interoperability goes a step further by ensuring that the precise meaning of the exchanged information is understood by any system receiving or sending the data. This is particularly important in complex systems like healthcare, where different databases and systems need to share information accurately to offer effective patient care. Semantic interoperability is often achieved through the use of common data models and ontologies that define the relationships between different types of data, enabling various systems to understand the context and meaning of the information they exchange.
