Based on an in-depth evaluation of existing approaches to this problem we discuss how ontologies are used to support the integration task. We evaluate and com- pare the languages used to represent the ontologies and the use of mappings between ontologies as well as to connect ontologies with information sources. We also ask for ontology engineering methods and tools used to develop ontologies for information in- tegration. Based on the results of our analysis we summarize the state of the art in ontology-based in- formation integration and name areas of further re- search activities.
