Owing to the heterogeneity of geo-analysis models, many scholars and researchers have designed and promulgated standards in an attempt to address this. However, models based on different standards still cannot be shared and reused easily among different model frameworks. For example, models based on the OpenMI, BMI and OpenGMS-IS standards have heterogeneous development styles and formats, so they cannot interoperate. This article analyses the challenges faced when sharing and reusing models across different standards and provides a solution for model interoperation among them. By mapping fields, converting functions, and reorganizing components, our “interoperability engine” allows models that use one standard to be operated within a framework that supports a different standard. This article discusses the developed interoperability method and provides case studies (using e.g. SWMM, FDS, and the Permamodel Frost Number component) to successfully demonstrate model interoperation.

由于地理分析模型的异质性，许多学者和研究人员设计并颁布了标准以试图解决这个问题。然而，基于不同标准的模型仍然无法在不同的模型框架之间轻松共享和重用。例如，基于OpenMI、BMI和OpenGMS-IS标准的模型开发风格和格式异构，无法互通。本文分析了跨不同标准共享和重用模型时面临的挑战，并为它们之间的模型互操作提供了解决方案。通过映射字段​​、转换函数和重组组件，我们的“互操作性引擎”允许使用一种标准的模型在支持不同标准的框架内运行。
