The current study deals with the theoretical and methodological feasibility of the use of domain analysis and discourse community, by means of literary and semantic warrants, aiming at the identification of the rural landscape in its ontological dimension, having Knowledge Organization Systems (KOS) as a purpose. The rural landscape and its network of concepts within the field of Library and Information Science (LIS) are analyzed in relation to geographic knowledge representation and organization. The methodological procedures, subdivided into bibliographical research and documentary research, included the examination of the 1970 and 2006 editions of the Brazilian Census of Agriculture, under the responsibility of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, and of representation of the rural landscapes in bibliographic classification systems, thesauri, and ontologies. Results show conceptual and standardized landscape terminology by means of the conceptualization of the categories that represent it, resulting from the geography domain and aggregated to information taken from the 1970 and 2006 Brazilian censuses of agriculture.
