E-government is considered as the efficient way of Information &Communication Technology (ICT) to improve the system of government that is in place, and with a aim to provide better and useful services to the Citizens. Ontologies plays an important role in the deployment of various e-government projects and services as they enable matching, mapping and merging of various services of e-government and it also enables to facilitate the semantic integration and interoperability of various e-government services. This paper reviews the various methods and tools to implement the ontologies and how to test them using various reasoners.
