✦ Synopsis

In this paper we focus on the application of the declarative mediator language MedLan to the integration of geographical information systems and deductive databases. The language provides the ability to handle multiple logic theories via the notion of program expressions. We present an application example that deals with ®nding the best habitat for wild boars in a region of Tuscany.
